You never want to have a player injured. No two concussions are the same. Add all the other catchphrases and cliches. If Jaire was going to miss time because of concussion this might be one of the best times for it to happen. It's sort of like a mini bye. Jax WRs are not world beaters. Their best two receivers are WR2 or WR3 at best. Time of the other Packer CBs to step up. Hopefully King will be back.

Hopefully King will be back.

Also I've read if you get a concussion, stay off electronics. I guess electronics use a ton of brian usage as we have to reject all the advertisement and other items, but it's not good for a recovering brain.

Also hopefully Lazzard and Kirksey are back, and Lazard, Lewis and Packers OC might want to show up their old team.

IIRC, he seemed to get hit in the back/side of the head. Not a great spot.

https://bmjopen.bmj.com/content/4/5/e005078

Qualitative analysis showed that the head was more vulnerable to lateral impacts. Logistic regression analyses of head acceleration and velocity components revealed that angular acceleration of the head in the coronal plane had the strongest association with concussion; tentative tolerance levels of 1747 rad/s2 and 2296 rad/s2 were reported for a 50% and 75% likelihood of concussion, respectively. The mean maximum resultant angular accelerations for the concussion and no-injury cases were 7951 rad/s2 (SD 3562 rad/s2) and 4300 rad/s2 (SD 3657 rad/s2), respectively. Linear acceleration is currently used in the assessment of helmets and padded headgear. The 50% and 75% likelihood of concussion values for resultant linear head acceleration in this study were 65.1 and 88.5 g, respectively.

Further, ducking your head exposes the player to neck injuries as the neck muscle would seem to have the most support/resilience head-on.

Hate to see injuries, especially ones to the head, but I think Jaire gonna be OK.
