easilyscan 715 Posted November 2, 2020 Reed suffered his 6th documented concussion. He initially tried to play through the injury, but entered the protocol following the game. ... August 2019: In the team's third preseason game, Reed suffered the 7th documented concussion of his football career after being struck by Falcons' safety Keanu Neal. The guy and/or his wife must like to spend money. Did a little research & found he signed a contract in 2016 worth 40 million... with 22 million guaranteed. It's the Internet so you never know if it's accurate, but a net worth search said he's 'only' worth $4 million now. That's an ungodly amount to some people, but to Reed & his wife, apparently it's not much. Why else would you take a chance after you've already had 7 documented concussions ? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stonewall 647 Posted November 2, 2020 Dropping. Have Goedert for ROS after his bye this week, but will have to get a stop-gap for week 9. Is Reed expected back this week? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rotoworld JORDAN REEDTE, SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS 49ers designated TE Jordan Reed (knee) to return from injured reserve. Reed went down in Week 3 with a knee sprain that was expected to cost him 6-8 weeks. He seems to be making good progress. The 49ers now have 21 days to activated Reed or shut him down for the year.

AxeElf 787 Posted November 2, 2020 The only thing you really can hope for with Reed is that he gets hurt late in the game, after he's scored you a TD or two, rather than in the first quarter, leaving you with 1/5/0 from your TE that week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 3,005 Posted November 2, 2020 Only thing one can hope for, is that J Reed playes the whole game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Phil Simms 11 133 Posted November 3, 2020 I guess he could also be a week or two early or late, so will try to hold him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TimHauck 2,444 Posted November 3, 2020 I'm leaning towards dropping him. Even when he played he had 1 monster game and 1 good game, outside of that he was mediocre. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Law 239 Posted November 3, 2020 Why has there been no action on this? He still hasn’t been placed on IR - either 3-week or season ending. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Did you ever see the post where someone found Andrew McCutchen's pay stub? His net pay was literally half of his gross pay. If he saw all $40M of that contract, before it hit his bank account, the government took at least $20M. Then you have the agent/accountant costs, union dues, etc. After all of that crap was paid and you factor in money for charitable donations and what not (because most players generally give a lot of money for that stuff... and not 100% of it can be written off), I'm thinking his final take home pay was about 25% of the gross. Now, I'm not saying that's nothing small, but $10M doesn't go as far as $40M. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
