Personally, if it's a situation where one minor injury could end his career for good, I'd rather see him on the sidelines as some sort of coach, like AJ Gass. However, if he is healthy, I definitely wouldn't mind seeing him on the field again. Who wouldn't want him on their team?
But unfortunately, living in Ontario I don't get much news over here concernig the Eskimos. I was wondering if anyone has heard anything about his future plans.
Jason Tucker is remaining with the Edmonton Eskimos, but as a coach and not a player.
A league source requesting anonymity told The Canadian Press late Thursday night that Tucker will be named a receivers coach with the CFL team after suffering a career-ending neck injury last season. Tucker would join the staff of new Eskimos head coach Richie Hall, the long-time Saskatchewan Roughriders assistant who was hired last month when Danny Maciocia relinquished sideline duties to become the club’s full-time general manager.
Not so fast Coach, this article http://www.leaderpost.com/sports/Tucker ... story.html claims it's still up in the air. Danny Pinata is still looking at other receiver coaches and seems to think Tucker could return as a player. Which I find totally mind-blowing after an injury like that and at his age. If my head had been removed from my shoulders like that I think I would have panic attacks if I came to near to a football field. Show what an amazing guy Tucker is. I'll be happy to have him in the 'Skmo's organization in any capacity.
