Starting strong safety Michael Lewis had to be helped off the field today after a head-first hit on Falcons running back Michael Turner left him lying on the Candlestick Park grass for several minutes. Lewis was diagnosed with a concussion, the third he has suffered in the last two months.
Lewis suffered the first during an Aug. 18 scrimmage against the Raiders in Napa. Eleven days later, he took a knee to the side of the helmet during an exhibition game against the Cowboys and suffered another concussion. he sat out the exhibition finale against San Diego.

If Singletary cares about his players he will place him on IR and do his best to talking him into retiring.

Bench him. His health is more important than this game. I feel bad for him.
