I wonder what the rules of confidentiality are on that... on one hand, he's supposed to keep it confidential, on the other hand, that's not nessarily to your bosses.

My guess is for medical reasons, he can consult or talk about it, but not with football guys, or for football reasons

Also, when they need to consult a 3rd party (like the Packers doctor), that's usually really bad, and it's more like 8 weeks to 8 months or more.

But that probably illegal as technical he probably works for a hospital or something instead, and Packers are on the outside.
