It wasn't targeting - what happened to Springstein's brain - already happened before this tackle.

The cool thing about Springstein on the football field was he had the same shiny head with his helmet on or off.

Springstein didn't seem to care about concussions and his health when his team was paying him $60 million but he's changed his tune now that he's retired, shame this man.

Back in High School football - Springstein had the nickname "crazy legs" because of how his legs would flail around whenever he fell on the ground.

Oddly, he ran like a "chicken with its head cut off", and another American idiom was born.

In that case - he is eligible for the Bronco's QB rotation.

It's a good thing that Springstein is around these boards for some comic relief. Anything to take our minds off of the product that the Broncos have been putting on the field.

Crazy Legs Springstein should be an early front runner candidate for November POTM.

Please he has to gain some positive yardage before he can be considered for that.

There was the time - Springstein scooped up a fumble and ran the wrong way for a TD - hence the nickname - Wrong Way Springy. It turned out not to be a fumble either - just a ball rotation from the refs - during a commercial break.

Remember that time George picked up the yard marker thinking it was a sucker. He was seen licking the yard marker as he ran into the locker room at the end of the first quarter. Doofus thought it was half time.

Urban legend. No video confirming it...

I recall Springer being the last to wear what he called a real helmet. He threatened to protest when they switched to fasemasks, but we had no national anthem at the time. They all just stood around, staring blankly into the stands until the announcer called the captains to mid field.

I knew Springstein wouldn't make in the pros - no womanizing - no jail time, never suspended from anything, clean drug tests, perfect attendance at study hall and the guy who won the 5th grade Blue Ribbon for being the most diligent hall monitor.

To top it all off for the poor guy - he was a devote Bronco's fan in 2017 (what that must feel like).
