Whatever it was no longer seems to be an issue.

Re: Jimmy Graham Arrested?

I hope it was just a medication issue and not a health problem that will stop him from flying.

If it was anything serious he wouldn't be out there now. That's very promising.

Its positive that he is back on the field. But anything serious is relative. I think many seizure conditions are serious but may only produce a seizure every year or more, especially if medication can help control them. Maybe he will have another seizure like this randomly at some moment in the next year. I don't think that would preclude him playing football because the odds that the moment would come when he is on the field is very small, say 15 minutes of clock time per game x 16 games = 4 hours out of a year = (4/24)/365 = 1 in 2,920. And if that happened he would probably just fall or get corralled. It would not be his main danger on the field since it would be so unlikely to happen on the field and no player is 100% aware of every defender on the field during normal times or 2919/2920 aware. But flying planes and driving cars might be out of the question. A lot worse will happen if you lose awareness once there in a multi ton machine at high velocity, and he would be doing those for a lot more than 4 hours a year.

The major problem with the post is that Bako's complete opinion is based upon the assumption of Graham having experienced a seizure. I feel fairly confident that if he had indeed suffered a seizure of any sort he would not be out there today. That is what is positive.

Re: Jimmy Graham Arrested?

As mentioned in the other thread this is now officially all behind Graham. He can now move on and earn his ring for the second Lombardi in the Saints' history.
