CNN —The Miami Dolphins put on an offensive masterclass Sunday, defeating the Denver Broncos 70-20 in their home opener and scoring the second most points by a team in a regular season game in NFL history. The NFL record for one game is 73 points, set by the Chicago Bears in the 1940 NFL Championship. The regular season record is 72 points by Washington in 1966. Late in the fourth quarter the Dolphins had a chance to break the NFL regular season record and tie the Bears’ mark but opted to kneel instead of kicking a field goal from the Broncos’ 28-yard line. The only other team to score 70 points in an NFL game was the Los Angeles Rams in 1950 against the Baltimore Colts.

"That was a major motivating factor behind seeing if I could bring something new to the issue of concussions." The five millimetre thick G8RSkin balaclava is intended to stabilize the neck and head and dissipate the energy from a hit. Testing at Virginia Tech's Helmet Lab found it could reduce the risk of concussions by almost 60%. Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa considered retiring from football over the concussions he suffered in the 2022, the distressing scenes of which rocked the NFL. "It's very exciting," said committee member Dr. Charles Popkin, a team physician for USA Hockey and member of the USA Hockey National Safety and Protective Equipment Committee.

And because of what he now knows about football injuries, NFL players don’t seem so superhuman anymore. And as another NFL season kicks off this week, these questions haven’t gone away. Long-term degenerative brain diseases such as CTE and Parkinson’s have become huge concerns for football players and their families. “This is one reason why NFL fans can cheer for the most violent-looking tackles imaginable – because they are allowed in the game. “Football fans are like, ‘I love the physicality, but I’m certainly not going to put my child into that,” Wann says.

CNN —Heading into the NFL Draft, there’s always one prospect coming out of college who everyone becomes infatuated with, despite not being the finished article. This year’s golden boy is Anthony Richardson and, in his unique case, he’s impressed at every stage of the process. Richardson ran the fastest 40-yard dash time of all quarterbacks, as well as jumping the highest and furthest at the Combine. With potentially nine picks in the opening 12 being held by quarterback-needy teams, Richardson could be finding a new home anywhere across the league. David Rosenblum/Icon Sportswire/Getty ImagesIt means that Richardson has just 13 career college starts to his name entering the draft.

CNN —Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa said Wednesday he considered walking away from football “for a time” after suffering multiple concussions last season. “I always dreamed of playing as long as I could to where my son knew exactly what he was watching his dad do. I love the game of football, if I didn’t, I would have quit a long time [ago].”Tagovailoa suffered multiple concussions last season causing him to miss five games, including the playoffs. This offseason, Tagovailoa is doing jiu-jitsu training to help him learn how to fall carefully. Tagovailoa will make a fully guaranteed $23.17 million for the 2024 season, according to the NFL.

Instead, he was grilled about the league's painfully slow progress when it comes to inclusion and diversity, particularly among head coaches. During last year's pre-game address, Goodell acknowledged that the NFL had fallen short when it comes to diversity and inclusion. Another persistent headache for the NFL are concussions, which jumped 18% during the 2022 regular season after three years of decline. The league came under intense criticism for its response to a concussion suffered by Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa in September. "Anytime we can change the protocols to make it safer for our players we're going to do that," assured Goodell.

☆ Concussions jump 18% but overall injuries down, says NFL
▼ + stars: | 2023-02-03 | by ( Steve Keating | ) www.reuters.com time to read: +2 min

According to season-ending data compiled by the NFL, there were a total of 149 concussions suffered over 271 regular season games, representing a significant increase over 2021. Medical teams performed an average of 1.6 evaluations per game last season, while medical timeouts called by spotters and officials nearly doubled. "We are doing more evaluations than ever and we did change the protocol, becoming more conservative, and we had more medical timeouts and continue to emphasis player self report." While concussions were up the number of overall injuries was down 5.6%. Despite signs of a concussion, the Miami quarterback was allowed to return to the game after passing the league mandated protocol.

Millions of football fans held their breath for close to 20 long minutes Monday night when Buffalo Bills’ Damar Hamlin had a cardiac arrest after making a routine tackle. In the largest study conducted on the subject, 99% of former NFL players showed signs of chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), a devastating neurodegenerative disease caused by repeated head trauma. Another key study showed that 40% of retired NFL players have traumatic brain injury, with no correlation between the number of concussions and the severity of the injury. Seau’s death brought the issue of traumatic brain injury to a boiling point, and yet the league’s steps to address the issue appear to be little more than Band-Aids. He raised his hands in an unnatural movement that can be a sign of traumatic brain injury.

☆ Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa in concussion protocol for second time this season

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa has returned to the NFL’s concussion protocol, Miami coach Mike McDaniel said Monday. The concussion protocol is enacted whenever a player reports concussion-related symptoms, even if he isn’t certain to have a concussion. He entered the concussion protocol after taking a scary hit that knocked him unconscious during Miami’s Sept. 29 game at Cincinnati. He appeared to show concussion symptoms but was evaluated and stayed in the game. The NFL later changed its concussion protocol to mandate that any player who shows possible concussion symptoms — including a lack of balance or stability — sit out the remainder of a game.
