You knew there was going to be a segment of football fans out there calling Carson Wentz “soft” for reporting the concussion that ultimately forced him out of Sunday’s playoff game. One of those people posts about it nonstop in the Crossing Broad comments section.

The NFL’s chief medical officer obviously disagrees with that assertion, saying this about Wentz via the Associated Press:

“I think what Carson Wentz did is heroic and should be highlighted as an example of how an unbelievably skilled and competitive athlete understands the seriousness of concussion injury and is willing to honestly report it and receive the care that he needs independent of his desire and drive to continue to participate in the game,” Dr. Allen Sills told The Associated Press on Thursday. “Having a concussion and playing through it is not about toughness. That’s demonstrating a lack of understanding of the severity of the injury. So I applaud Carson Wentz for understanding how serious this injury is and for getting appropriate care that he needs.”

There you have it. Dr. Allen Sills applauds Carson Wentz for his behavior. I’m sure fake tough guys sitting on their couch and shoving Pringles down their throat will still call him a “pussy” though.
