I'm going to clear the football player to return to the game regardless of his unhealed injury.
Why would you clear a player that has not healed?
I don't have any regard for safety.
Your actions could cause permanent damage to the ball player. This could also cause the team to loose, this is not a good idea.
So?
If the player is still injured you should keep him on the bench. It makes no sense to risk further injury.
