Video: Redskins DE Ricky Jean Francois opens up about concussion fears

Ricky Jean Francois joined For The Win on Facebook Live earlier this week and talked about concussions.

His teammate, Redskins tight end Jordan Reed, has suffered from five concussions in his career and our own Luke Kerr-Dineen asked Francois if he worries about the injury.

Francois has played in the NFL for 8 seasons and has never suffered from a concussion but he realizes the downsides of the game and all of the possibilities at stake whenever he plays. He doesn’t want concussions to have an affect on his livelihood.

“What’s more important at the end of the day? You playing ball or you being able to live a normal life once this game is done,” he said.
