Personally, I think your statement jumps too quickly to a conclusion ("is not being served" and "shouldn't be allowed to play").
There are "degrees" of concussions. And, it's entirely possible that the prior one healed / the player passed the post-concussion test, etc.
Just like when we get second-hand stories about an official's call, we like to get the official's side of the story, I think we should get the medical staff's side of the story here.
