Not joking at all. I knew of some cases where people at school would miss some time. Didn't realize it could stop you from playing pro FB. Just thought they would give him some kind of meds and be on his merry way.

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold will be sidelined indefinitely after being diagnosed with mononucleosis, coach Adam Gase announced Thursday. Trevor Siemian will start Monday night against the Cleveland Browns.
The Jets, who lost starting wide receiver Quincy Enunwa to a season-ending neck injury this week, could be without Darnold for multiple weeks.
"Looks like it," Gase said. "Good thing we've got an early bye week."
The bye week falls in Week 4, following an away game against the New England Patriots. Darnold's earliest likely return is Week 5 at the Philadelphia Eagles.
