Second-year wide receiver Jared Abbrederis, who suffered a concussion in late July and hasn't practiced since, might never play football...

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

Not surprising, but certainly disappointing. If he leaves the game behind, I am sure he will succeed elsewhere.

Crap...I can't say I saw this coming, but with what he went through, and what Borland just did, I can't say I'm all too surprised if this happens.

If Abby does retire... 88 cent should go for his number...reminded me of Sterling first time I saw him in a Packers uni on my screen. Although, I like the number 88, better.

I wouldn't blame him, but I'd be all for the team keeping him around on the practice squad after training camp.

Get out while you still have a brain, dude. Must be tremendously disappointing for him but you only get one life.

Not surprised. Between concussions in college and his small size, it was always going to be lurking in the background. It's a pity because he could have been lethal in slot on his own or opposite Cobb in a 4 WR set.

Abbrederis has been seen in the locker room more often in the last few days, although the rules prevent him talking to the media until he's cleared. However, he has been attending meetings recently, which means he has passed part of the protocol because players can't attend meetings in the early stages of the process.

I wouldn't criticize him if he did, but I'd be surprised. This probably is a rumor circulated by people who think he should rather than by the player himself. A major difference between Abbrederis and Borland is that Borland had already made a few million - set for life if he wants it that way. I'm not sure how much bonus Abbrederis got, but I doubt he has made all that much.

For comparison sake, here is Abbrederris contract details .
