I agree but I wouldn't be too worried. Concussions can really do a lot of damage to a brain when you haven't yet completely recovered from one concussion when you experience another. However, the way the NFL concussion protocol is set up now ensures the players' brains get long enough to recover after a trauma to avoid exactly that. It's a pretty great system to protect them from long term damage.

I played the same way as Luke when I was in the semi pros and in high school ball. I was a defensive tackle and end. I'd stand up and recognize sets in high school, and start yelling out Play packages. I caused a few opponents to take time outs. It was really fun watching them burn timeouts because I knew their play. I finally got a couple of my friends to do the same thing, our defense went to the top of the district. It's too bad we couldn't score anything, so we missed the playoffs, but darn we have a good defense.

It hurts so much knowing Kuechly and Thomas Davis join the ever growing list of legendary Panthers players who never won a ring. I can't think of anyone who deserved a ring more than those two, Kuechly for his intelligence and ability and TD for his heart and willpower. One of, if not the best LB duos of all time.

6:16 I will always remember this play. I saw it live on TV and always watch Keuchly cause he's always making calls and switching things. On TV, you just see him pointing then he just shoots the gap so well to make the tackle and cause a fumble. I was pretty amazed.

That passion you once had, the drive you once love driving isn’t drivable anymore 😔 Luke you will forever be a staple in the panther community, your love for football is like no other, you will and are missed BIG time.
