Shorts (head) cleared for football activities

Cecil Shorts - WR - Jacksonville Jaguars

Jan. 25, 2013 - 1:30 PM ET

Cecil Shorts (concussions) has been cleared for football activities.

We haven't had an update on Shorts since he was placed on injured reserve on Christmas Eve after suffering his second concussion in a month. So this is good news because, as we've seen with teammate Laurent Robinson, head injuries can derail a career. If the Jaguars can find a quarterback in 2013, Shorts can be a top-20 fantasy receiver.
