Let’s give Agholor due praise here - I’ve never seen an athlete do something like this for a teammate after a concussion
I'm glad he caught that... he couldn't catch anything else...
@JonnyStu13 💀
I hope he gets a bonus or this becomes an incentive in the league
Learn the difference between a stinger and a TBI... Nothing Traumatic about getting a boo boo while playing a game with pads on.
Can you take a look at Stanz’s dislocated shoulder from the Ludwig Mogul Moves Chess Boxing event? th-cam.com/video/5OnueoIauFY/w-d-xo.html
Agholor won’t get nearly enough props for this. Nothing but respect for him
“Won’t get enough props” he’s getting shouted out and congratulated by every major sports entity, reporter, analyst and talk show host. There’s three seperate posts about it on r/NFL, and it’s been posted by most top tier twitter analysts and is being posted by every highlight channel. What do you mean he won’t get enough props, everyone is giving him props
This is why I never complain when these dudes wanna get paid bro was ready to risk his life just to stay on the field
Parker is not a QB so nobody from the NFL spotter team is going to care.
@A LY this dude is tripping haha literally every TH-cam video and Instagram post I’ve seen is flooded with comments praising him
Couldn’t have said this better myself, ProfPolish 💯
They should genuinely give him an end of the year award for this. Call it the sportsmanship award. This stuff needs to be promoted above all else.
Was literally just thinking, this kind of behavior deserves a massive carrot. These athletes put their lives on the line for competition and entertainment, and it's hugely important that we do everything we can to incentivize their protection.
Walter Payton man of the year
@Anthony Gonzalez That's mainly a charity award. Great award but not quite the same.
@TheHopelessGamerz oh it’s quite charitable to save your teammates life.
@Anthony Gonzalez yeah but you have players creating whole cancer, brotherhood, and homeless campaigns. But I agree they need a sportsmanship award
This is truly a class act!!! This HAS to be called out as one of the most ethical actions from a teammate in the last 10 years.
It would be really cool if sports anchors had a short segment highlight these types of actions.
Agreed. What I find disturbing is that Parker was wobbling in front of the ref and the ref did nothing.
Repent to Jesus Christ “By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.””
John 13:35 NIV
I
@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ naw
@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ Imagine how much more helpful you can be to people if you actually got out there and physically or monetarily helped people instead of regurgitating scripture to strangers who don't want to hear it online. Because you know, its the internet, if I wanted to read or hear it id go to the website for it.
And THAT’S why we loved him in Philly. Despite his drop issues at the end, he was a well-respected player. By fans and players alike.
Yeah, he's always seemed like just an all-around solid dude.
Yes, I will ALWAYS be a fan. He's a good guy.🦅
What’re you talking about? We hated him in Philly 😂😂😂 Mr. Butterfingers.
F’real though he’s a good dude for watching out for his teammates. Respect!
@MusicInMyHeart yall too ruthless 😂
@pgame20 Call up Bill Burr to set them straight!
I was at the game and saw this in real time and was confused at first. Then I realized what he was doing so I pulled out my phone to watch the replay. I’m a cardinals fan but I applauded him right from my seat because of what he did for his teammate. It was beautiful
The defensive player across from Agholor, #9 Isaiah Simmons, was also pointing to Parker as well! I think both of them deserve credit, not just Agholor. Simmons also walked over with Agholor to check on him!
Damn near makes you wanna cry because you know he might have jus saved him from life altering injury ✊🏿
I must admit that I did get a little misty eyed.
Bro i def got teary wtfff
Its a great call but i think hed probly be fine if they had ran the play. In his current state of mind there would be little to no chance of him getting open for a catch to even be hit. Its hard enough when your 100% let alone on queer street
He's a life homie for that
@Gonzo lol does that mean a windy road or bumpy or WTH?😂
Potentially saved this man’s life nothing but respect
Jesus loves you repent and come to Him today ❤️✝️
@Jesus Saves bible thumper alert ⚠️
Hyperbole much? Two hits to the head in a row doesn’t just automatically kill people
@Neonwhite A. not always but there’s a small chance it could, or at least cause permanent injury. Small hyperbole? Maybe, but I don’t think so
@Neonwhite A. No, can just cause LIFELONG complications. Definitely minor.... smh
Mad props for looking after his teammate. That goes beyond football and just doing what’s right
The defensive player across from Agholor, #9 Isaiah Simmons, was also pointing to Parker as well! I think both of them deserve credit, not just Agholor. Simmons also walked over with Agholor to check on him!
Great recognition for seeing the signs. Highest praise for courage to stop the play for the sake of his teammate’s health.
That's a player who values his teammates more than a game
We need more of this in the NFL for sure
We need the NFL to do their damn job and actually care about head injuries
In a game predicated on hard body contact please reconcile this with being more careful and aware. Football has always been very dangerous and damaging to the human body. That's what it was designed to be.
@Richard Torres that too lol
Now THAT, boys and girls, is how to be a good teammate and a damn good person. Props to Agholor.
I’m not a Pats fan but this is a very classy act in what could of been a very scary situation! Hats off to Agholor.
"I’m not a Pats fan"
ok?
why do people feel the need to say shit like "im not a x fan but" like who gives a fuck bro this literally has nothing to do with football. taking a serious situation and framing it through the perspective of your favorite football team as if it matters is disgusting.
@CaptGeech I know right?
Apologies. I should not have started my comment with “I’m not a Pats fan but”.
@Paul Callaghan if you’re sorry, just edit your original comment
Greatest catch in Agholor's career!
At least he didn’t drop this one
@Eric Fortman as an eagles fan, this one hurts 😭
Oh cmon, he got the Eagles the lead in the Super Bowl...
Still, this catch is fucking amazing. 100% a class act.
@shoutenry oh I agree, but he couldn’t even catch the ball enough to fumble it
Ouch
That is a teammate who cares about his team. He definitely helped keep him safe and deserves many, many props!!
Thanks for bringing this to our attention! Kudos to Agholor for doing right by his teammate. What a great example; everyone who plays on a team should follow his lead!!
As someone who has multiple brain injuries that were not properly medically addressed I have to say this is awesome to see his teammate help him out like this. This is what someone should do if you see someone going through these or other types of symptoms after a head injury.
We all need someone like Angholor to look out for you.👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Not just a good teammate, but a good human, as well. Well done, Mr. Agholor
. In the history of athletics this may have happened many times but what sets this out is the knowledge about concussions is on everybody"s minds now and this should make contact sports a bit safer. That team mate's reaction bears that out.
Sportsmanship is about integrity. You never want to see someone get hurt or hurt themselves further.
Not only does Nelson Agholor deserve the due praise that he should get, he also deserves a huge raise! He probably saved his life! Let alone his career! Big ups for Nelson!!!
He genuinely deserves some sort of award for this, he needs some big-time recognition
This nearly brought me to tears! Great job! 💯
Damn onions...
Best teammate ever, hands down. Mad respect for this young man ✊
That have me chills.. I've never seen anything like that before. He honestly could've let that man be his own man in that moment but I love how he stepped up.
A) No excuse for the spotters to miss this. B) Agholor showed how great of a teammate he is by doing this.
Exactly Fire the spotters there not there to enjoy the game there there to watch literally for this
@Ed Furmsm Probably be best to employ spotters who are not football fans to minimize the possibility of somebody getting swept up in the excitement of the game. They will be there strictly to do the job of watching for head injuries.
@Paintface Brotha are you kidding? This is literally the way the spotters are supposed to be hired. Any conflict of interest whatsoever is not allowed
sure, fire them. you have likely all never been anything but perfect after all. pretending they should catch every single thing every time or die, whats the point of being so rigid? I can tell you this with certainty.....fire all spotters, remove the concussion protocol completely and ninety percent of players will absolutely play anyway. they know there are risks. they are adults. do you really think Parker, once his head got clear, went running to the owner and screamed..."where were the spotters".....so why are you?
@Jason Skinner you do realize there are multiple spotters if it were only only I can see missing that not multiple. there are jobs that were if you miss something serious enough you should be let go it can cost someone’s life or well being not saying one should be perfect but multiple to miss this is is unacceptable that’s all I’m saying
Awe-inspiring move by Agholor in what too often is a win-at-all-costs league. He’s my player of the month for this act alone.
This is awesome to see. They're a team so glad to see them trying to keep the team safe
We need more people in the league like Agholor. The league will make big strides if it takes players health and safety as it’s #1 priority.
You have my full respect Nelson!! You potentially saved this man's life had he taken another hit to the head. Amazing man and teammate ❤️
Now that's a teammate 💯 Mad respect
Hard to put into words. I'm proud of that human for setting this example. Keeping this in the back of my head.
Bro, he’s such a great teammate. People need to care about each other this way ❤
Big props to Nelson Agholor for putting his teammates health above all.
I no longer watch nfl or think much of the nfl but this guy did a great deed for his team mate.
Just amazing. Deep respect to Nelson Agholor for valuing another human above the next football play.
One of the best catches of Nelson’s career
Huge, HUGE props to him! He's the type teammate we all wish we had! When you have a concussion you can't make good decisions! Sometimes you don't even know exactly what's wrong even though you just hit your head! Personally last year I hit my head, knocking myself our for a few minutes and when I came to I had a bad headache but didn't even think about a concussion until a coworker asked me if I had a concussion. I said I didn't but was acting really weird. I wanted to go home, but my boss (who watched the whole thing happen) said he needed me through at least lunch. I was miserable. We were doing demolition of an apartment. Every hammer blows chiping up the tile floors was like a chisel into my ear! I still don't remember much of that day, but my coworkers filled me in after the fact. My boss wasn't happy, but I ended up at the doctor that afternoon and he wouldn't let me go back to work for a full week! I just wish I'd have had coworkers that stepped up and told me to go home!
I was knocked cold by a fall while skateboarding. I thought it would pass, ended up hospitalized.
That’s a lawsuit get to da bread
If you are knocked unconscious, you need to be evaluated. Period. Find a new boss!
@Todd Wollin way a head of you! I know longer work there! I will say I didn't leave right away and actually left on good terms. Things came to a head a few weeks later and a bunch of guys quit. The boss that was causing a lot of the problems recognized a bunch of his issues and actually changed! But it was still a dead end job and I got out of there as soon as I found something better!
props? propellers?
Massive respect for what Agholor did. Having played pee-wee football from 4th-8th grade, then High school ball from 9th-12th, then some city league ball for a couple of seasons, and coaching for several seasons, I know it is easy to be so self focused in a game, or concentrating on so many other things, that you don't pick these kind of things up in others.
Great job by Agholor in demonstrating the true meaning of teammate!
Absolutely amazing job by his teammate. He should be publicly recognized by the team
Got emotional here. What a great teammate.
Awesome save, true teammate. One of my favorite players in the entire league for this alone.
Amazing reaction from Agholor here. Really looking out for his team mate and stepped up to stop the play and help him.
Potentially helped him for further issues in the match and future issues with his health for the rest of his life. A few seconds of intuition to save a life time of illness… 👏👏👏👏
People forget oftentimes between all the hard hits and trash talk and rivalries even amongst team members these guys are people and in times like this it really comes out. When someone suffers an injury or has some emergent situation all the rest stops. You turn from let’s win the game to let’s keep this person alive or at least prevent any future damage. Those basic instincts kick in of preservation and protection of your fellow man and I think that was perfectly illustrated here. God Bless Agholor he’s a terrific person and deserves all the credit
No longer an NFL fan but this is one of the more amazing acts I've seen on the field.
Indeed, he deserves some kind of award to recognise his diligence. It may have been nothing but he also may have saved the guy's life. This is the kind of team player we need to reward.
Respect. I’m a sports official and that’s awesome to see. There is hope left in people. Great team mate
He was a great Player and Teammate for our Eagles! Props to a good guy too!
I wish I had coworkers like this.
Are you that coworker?
How many concusions are you getting at work?
@Arc DesTriumph Idk about at work, but I get at least 3 a day from reading TH-cam comment sections
@Hash Yes.. I hear you... I prefer to know my job, and do it well. Strange that "Josh" here wants to get a head injury at work and have coworkers "notice" it and get him proper treatment. Hate to say it... but Josh sounds a little psycho.
coworkers like this tend to get fired because it's not in the company best interest for employees to look out for one another.
Thank you for showcasing this, what a great guy! Praise to Nelson Agholor!!!
Good man. Need more people like him. Thank you
Props to Agholor. Smart, aware, courageous call. Good to see players looking out for each other.
TEAMMATES! Quite possibly the best way to show someone you got there back is to look out for them even when they may not want your help! Well done!
As an Eagles fan, I absolutely love Nelson Agholor. He's such a good dude and seems like a great teammate. The only issue anyone ever had with him was his drops but I think without him popping off in 2017, we never win the Super Bowl. I kept rooting for him when other Eagles fans wouldn't, and seeing things like this makes me feel vindicated. I love Nelly and I will root for him wherever he plays (unless he ever goes to Dallas)
This was the biggest catch of his career! And yes, he was huge in that super bowl run.
Wow; given that last remark, you *ARE* an Eagles fan. 🤟
Me too. Well said.
😂😂😂 u no eagles fan lol
What a great topic to cover in your video. That's a real teammate right there. Very moving to see him do everything in his power to call attention to that. Thanks for bringing this to light and applauding his efforts.
The league needs to needs to know what this guy did! What a good dude man!
It's a shame that the refs/spotters didn't notice this, and they were prepared to continue playing. Props for Nelson for not only recognizing it but ensuring play got stopped to get him looked at. As we've seen in the NFL, things can ALWAYS get worse.
Thank you so much for showing our young, upcoming high school players as well as the older ones how important the other players are - the game isn’t worth anyone’s life. I am the mother of three sons who played football and/or soccer through high school and/or college. They were super athletes and are wonderful men today. Thankfully, they never sustained awful head injuries!
Agholor gets some mad respect from me for this, truly a good sportsman and great friend to have!
That's what a team mate should do. It's a pity it doesn't happen all the time. HUGE kudos to Nelson Agholor for doing what needed to be done.
Wow! That is wonderful. So great you explained this to us. I love it when teammates support one another. Especially in such circumstances as these.
What a good human being. Love to see this. Thank you for bring this to my attention.
Situational Awareness. Not everyone knows what that means but HE CERTAINLY DOES.
Thank You Mr. Agholor for being who you are. A TEAM PLAYER IN EVERY WAY.
Valuing a teammates safety as more important than the game. Props to him!
This is amazing! This man is a true team player!
Bravo Nelson having your teammates back! Yes he should be commended
What a great story. I watched the game but didn't see that happen. I am really happy to see players caring for one another.
True team work prayers going up to his family n team glad he was pay attention to his teammate need more teammates like that
Some could say hes an angel in disguise..I've got a new found respect for that man
I am not a sports fan, but it is great to see someone making the effort to protect another.
Nelson is a great man. He was loved here in Philly and still is.
This scenario would be perfect for training each player how to recognize this sort of thing. Every team should use this video as training material. Bravo to Nelson for having this awareness to help a teammate.
So NFL will be like, when you get tackled, land on your head, seemed dazed and need help getting up, maybe you should be evaluated for a concussion
Exactly right!
Yes indeed. Granted there are spotters who are supposed to do that job, but clearly that protocol isn't foolproof as if they missed this one there's a chance they'll miss another one (or maybe already have missed others...)
When it comes to these kinds of injuries, the more layers of redundancy you can build into the protocol system, the safer everyone will be when this situation arises.
As somebody who is in a car accident and has had a concussion, I know it’s not like nearly the same thing as being in a sports game but you get messed up and I’m really happy that he’s looking out for him in this way, because we lose too many good athletes to this
This man is playing some heads up game !!!!!!! His teammates are really blessed to have him.
In a sport where your team and owners will chew you up and spit you out, you really got to look out for each other. Huge amount of respect.
There should be a Walter Payton style award for teammates like this. Putting your teammate above the game is not an easy feat, and something the coached and medical professionals should absolutely catch before the players, but this type of sportsmanship and understanding has to come with more than just a pat on the back. Dude literally could've saved his teammate from something seriously here.
Thanks doc for standing up for what's good and being an advocate. Great to see a good influence for the youth
Was waiting on this to be talked about. He saved the guys career
Lot of hyperbole in this comments he didn’t save his career, getting two hits in the head in a row isn’t a guaranteed knockout let alone a career ender. Let’s celebrate the play without being ridiculous
@Neonwhite A. 2 traumatic brain injuries can result into anything. Don’t really know WHAT could have happened
@Neonwhite A. The fact you keep insisting in these comments that this is minor is just really weird to me. He gets hit again, yeah there's a chance nothing happens and he's fine. Or maybe he gets a brain injury that is with him the rest of his life. Obviously anyone with common sense and empathy understands you take him out 10/10 times. Whats your deal??
@Fly The W - he hasn’t insinuated that it was “minor”…. He’s telling all you nerds that Parker was in zero threat of ending his life,,, and these guys sustain sub-concussive head trauma every single game that will stick with them for the feast of their lives….. hopefully you’ve bought a jersey
I don't watch football. This is just a GREAT example of being a good human being‼️ He did for that guy what he couldn't do for himself. I've had a couple concussions (30+yrs ago) but I do recall the feeling of watching life as if I was a spectator. That video genuinely made my day.
As someone who suffered an accident causing a diffuse axonal brain injury, this seriously needs more awareness. Most effects of a tbi last for the rest of anyone’s life. Bless him.
Full kudos to Nelson. Awesome job buddy. All teammates should be like you!,
Much Respect to Nelson Agholor. Love hinm during his Eagles Days. Definition of a True Team Mate
Thank you Dr. Sutterer for bringing awareness to concussion protocol. I think a lot of people missed what was happening.
SO MUCH RESPECT. what a fantastic teammate!
With the unfortunate amount of head knocks in rugby, teammates are always on the lookout for each other when it comes to concussion protocols. Glad football is taking it more seriously and teammates are able to recognize it.
Good man overall. Not only was h e aware but he made sure to get the attention of all to help out his teammates. Great job.
The player protected his team mate and that is admirable. Good job!!
This is nothing short of amazing.... Hats off to Mr. Agholor....
That's what we want to see out there on the field. Incredibly good move.
More important than the game. Take care of your teammates. Mad respect.
That’s a great job by Agholor to protect both a friend and teammate. There’s was no way he was going to allow that ball to be snapped.
As a former MMA fighter with a TBI this makes me so happy to see! Especially from my New England Patriots
That’s how you look out for your Brother. He could’ve gotten in trouble for taking a knee I think but he was gonna make sure his boy got help no matter what. Way to go Agholor! 👏🏼 👏🏼
Shout out to Agholor. A true friend and teammate that knows a persons wellbeing is more important than a football game.
Phenomenal video and breakdown. Very cool to see this kind of accountability from a teammate
I was watching this game on TV and I saw this and already knew what he was doing , props to him👏🏽
What he did needs to be recognized by the head coach AND the league and both need to let the rest of the team/teams know what exactly to look for to protect every player on every team.
Bill's reaction I predict will be muted.
Bill was more worried about getting the next play in so they couldn't challenge
The NFL literally pays a guy to watch the game for this exact reason. Where the hell is that guy? Everyone watching knew that there was a problem, how the hell did the NFL stooge not see this? Coaches are a good bit away, so they mostly get a pass here. They have to get on with the next play. I can't tell which offensive lineman helps him up but that guy had a chance to do more.
@Anubiam
I agree 100% Good post.
Good video. And yes this needs to be seen as the act of a truly great teammate. Agholor understands the game and Parker's competitive spirit and realizes he needs to act BEFORE it makes a bad scene. The NFL should be grateful to Agholor as well.
I'm in my 40s, and I grew up with the mindset of "rub some dirt on it, you're fine", but I've grown to understand how important it is to take care of our brains. It makes me happy to see players standing up like this.
Props to him. Much respect to Nelson!
In my experiences that man is truly heroic.
