Former NFL receiver Hank Baskett says it’s time Redskins TE Jordan Reed starts thinking about his future off the field … saying “you gotta know when actually it’s time to hang it up.”
Reed’s health became a hot topic this week after he suffered the 6th concussion of his short career during last weeks game against the Ravens. Baskett — who played 5 years in the league — thinks Reed should look at the bigger picture.
“If you keep pushing — especially after 6 confirmed concussions — I think you gotta think about that a little more,” Baskett tells TMZ Sports.
“You gotta think about life. Life is bigger, there’s so much after sports. If I was in that situation where I had 6 concussions, I would stop because my family and my health is more important.”
