Doesn't compare at all to Wideman imo, concussion or not.
And to say it's more dangerous.. honestly not sure about the linesman/ref in this instance, but Wideman ended a career, whether he was gonna retire or not

Wideman’s was more “brain disconnected.”
You can’t compare someone who had just suffered a hit to the head with someone who just didn’t bother to see who he was hitting. It doesn’t really matter if Beckman was more remorseful than a guy whose brain just finished slapping the sides of his skull, you’d hope he was, and you’d hope he was remorseful because he hit him at all, and not because he hit him harder than he meant to.
