He probably had some micro-naps, like 10-15 second naps, and then kept waking up. It insomnia on steroids. It's the absolute worst.Usually doesn’t it only take about a week without sleep for someone to go insane?
You guessed it... post concussion symptoms.

This must be exaggerated. I'm not sure it's possible to go 3 weeks without any sleep at all. The current world record for not sleeping is 11 days.
Yeah, I injured myself lifting, and being unable to sleep even decently was the worst.When I dislocated my shoulder, I spent a couple of days unable to sleep for more than maybe an hour before I'd roll over and the pain would wake me up. After the second night, I was barely functioning when I was supposed to be "awake". 3 weeks of that due to a concussion sounds like torture.

REM sleep is important and you can't get it with micro naps.
Lack of sleep feels like you are taking years of your life.
