Yesterday, we learned that Malcolm Jenkins suffered a concussion and that was why he missed two practices in a row. Today, he was back on the practice field. Chip Kelly said his concussion “is not a big deal.”
Welp, I’m sorry, Chip, but it kind of is a big deal. Not only did the team keep this a secret, but it seems like after they realized it wasn’t a severe concussion and that he would be able to play on Sunday, all of a sudden it isn’t a “big deal.” Kind of shady.
Anyway, good to see him back on the field. Jason Peters and DeMeco Ryans also practiced.
