There is no rite answer to that. Its a judgement call. Again im not saying i would be for the cautious (which is not another word for stupid) and not play him but sure a week cant hurt. Yea i think the quicker the time frame between concussions absolutely definitely the worse.

edit: - he might not get one this week is obvious, but he is at more of a risk, where is in two weeks after more healing of the brain he would be closer to if not fully to where he was before this ever happened. It is not that complicated that I need to be a neurologist - brain, ankle, shoulder - whatever the body part, obviously the more time it has to heal the more back to normal and the more out of risk said body part will be vulnerable to another injury.
