Ep 25: Public Health Meets the NFL: 2024 Kickoff Rules and CTE Data (kw: football, head injury, concussions)
In this episode of Transmissible: A Public Health Podcast, we dive into the intersection of public health and professional sports. With the NFL's 2024 kickoff rule changes aimed at reducing head injuries, we explore the latest data on CTE (Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy) and its impact on athletes. Join us as we break down what these rule changes mean from a public health perspective, examining whether they truly address the growing concerns around concussions and long-term brain injuries in football.
