They left the game because it's protocol, they are practicing with no contact because they are symptom free usually 5-10 days if minor.

Not that I know how serious Vacarro's or Watson's concussions are, but Sproles came back the week after a concussion with the Jets and played lights out against the Cowboys. Just sayin'.

Yeah but I don't think his ability to perform is the concern. The real question is whether or not we'd be risking his long term health by playing him this week.
