Didn't he go to the locker room and then come back?

Half expected the Goodell machine to help ensure the hags win by benching Lewis for the game. When I saw this I all but **** myself

Yep

I agree WhoDat656! As I live in the UK I like to follow the game on the Saints radio link on NFL.com and Im sure he went to the locker room before coming back out to "watch" the rest of the game! Maybe he isn't supposed to come back out at all, even without his helmet on???

GEAUX SAINTS!!!!!

Ridiculous

Goodell is an idiot

He did go to locker room.

Re: New Orleans Saints' Keenan Lewis among 2 NFL players who violated concussion protocol
 

Rules say he has to stay there.

Add Harvin to the list. It seemed fairly obvious that when Bush hit him the first time, he had a concussion.

This is yet ANOTHER example of how the current NFL concussion protocol is a JOKE. It's totally inconsistent and they have no rules on how to enforce it!

In the case of Lewis, you could plainly see on the TV, that someone had physically taken away Lewis' helmet --they had taken it from him --and at one point he was yelling at a guy to give it back. You could see him yelling and the Saints trainer guy was shaking his head No. Looked like it was either Andre Curtis or Wesley McGriff, but it was hard to tell because the dude was so bundled up with his cap and big jacket and everything. But they took away his helmet.

Meanwhile in the Green Bay game, somebody on the sideline obviously gave that dude his helmet back so he was able to re-enter the game and play, even though he wasn't cleared. WTF. It's completely different from one team to the next, how they enforce it.

In Harvin's case it was an obvious concussion, but I knew there was no way Percy Harvin was going to flunk that test. You just knew they weren't going to keep him out of that game, so early like that and such an important game to the Seahawks. I don't think he even took his helmet off, at all, period. Completely arbitrary from team to team, how it is handled.
