Hey there.

Today’s episode of The GIST of It digs into a disturbing and unfortunately unrelenting issue in football: head trauma and the unmitigated risks of playing American’s favorite sport. 

Two examples rocked the NCAA and NFL worlds recently: The tragic death of Alabama A&M linebacker Medrick Burnett Jr. and the late hit on Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence that resulted in a concussion. Co-hosts Ellen Hyslop and Steph Rotz chat through these incidents, plus the differences in how the NCAA and NFL implement protection for their players.
