“I think by Monday we’ll know something,” Collins agent, Alan Herman, said Friday. “I assume we’ll know something by Monday.”

Dunno about that. He had extensive testing last week. He's just getting the results today, apparently.

Just because Collins may get his test results on Monday does not mean he will be making a decision about his future, however.

A decision is expected before the NFL Draft in late April, but discussions between Collins, his family, surgeon, agent, Mike McCarthy and Ted Thompson will likely take place to determine the best course of action.

Hoping for the best possible news for Nick, which isn't even coming back and playing. Its gotta be a tough position to be in. I would side with Mike McCarthy on this one and say regardless of the test results, he shouldn't play. There is just way too much risk with the position he plays.

I look at the "hit" that did it. Recalling, I don't think it was much of a hit but more of Stewart (or Williams) leaping over Collins and landing on the top of his head. I can't imagine if he were to come back and have a hit much harder than that.

Also, if he were to come back, I don't think he would be the same player.

Nick has said he will not return if he's at anymore risk now than prior to the injury. While what you said might still hold true, I don't think it would be as much of a concern as some may think. I think it is human nature that it will be there for at least a few games after a few hits.
