Jahvid Best - RB - Detroit Lions
Feb. 19, 2013 - 3:15 PM ET
Teammate Nate Burleson believes Jahvid Best (concussions) should "shut it down."
"I just told him that, if it was me, I would shut it down," Burleson said. "You've got so much more life to live, and even though I would love to have you on the field, I don't want it to risk anything that has to do with your brain or possibly your post-career." Best has yet to officially retire, but the Lions are moving forward as if he has. It's probably only a matter of time before Best hangs it up.
