Sucks :(

Sounds like he just can't overcome the hearing problem.

Yeah, I figured it had something to do with audibles, but he's played his entire life.

It makes sense he didn't play nearly at all at Bama and Florida

Can he hear at all? Like with hearing aids?

You'd think there could be some type of messaging device we could use to communicate directly with Tee via some form of text during the game.

He's got hearing aids, but it's still going to be vastly diminished from how my wife has explained it. Her grad program was in speech and audiology. He can hear, but distinguishing sounds is tricky with an aid.

Not to mention, it may not even be safe to play in them.

The possible sound spike from helmet contact would be awful.

God damn it. Can't give you assholes anything without ruining it.





Really though, hope this isn't true, would love to see him overcome that adversity.

Well, you guys have ruined Chris Jones so call it even. Him and Nkemdiche together would have been straight nasty.

None of this makes much sense to me at all.

Damn man, I really wanted him to succeed. I hope this is just BS and he powers through and plays his heart out.

I do as well. As hard as Tee has worked and with all the stuff he's overcome it would be a shame for him to hang it up.

Man Tee has become one of my favorites. I hope it's not true.

Something is wonky here.

Freeze said that Tee wasn't playing much on the road due to not being able to hear checks on the field.

That makes no sense. The crowd would be louder at HOME when he's on the field then they would be when we were away.

When was he getting worked though? We've barely seen him on the field, and in the offseason they constantly said he was excellent.

Asked somebody who has some connections about it this morning. The main sticking point is he can't hear the calls and they can't do signals since the opposition would know what the secondary is doing prior to the play. That seems some what plausible I guess.
