According to Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk, the word in the locker room is that Eagles wide receiver Jeremy Maclin is suffering from mononucleosis and/or the lingering effects of it. He was suffering from "mono-like" symptoms right after the 2010 season and lost 15 pounds, but that was around seven months ago. General Manager Howie Roseman told 97.5 the Fanatic on Tuesday that “[w]e totally anticipate Jeremy being part of our football team†and that “[w]e anticipate him being back here shortly.†Source: Pro Football Talk: Twitter.com
Mono can FREAK you up bad! I have a friend that played baseball, got Mono and wasn't diagnosed for about a year and he wasn't able to play after that. It can really screw up your immune system as well as some other fun stuff inside you! It can KILL YOU!
Mono is something that can kick your butt. He just needs to rest up and hopefully not miss much of the season
