☆ Sam Shields: Super Bowl champion regrets playing in NFL; says his head is 'all mushed together' with concussions
▼ + stars: | 2022-11-03 | by ( Ben Morse | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +7 min

CNN —Former Green Bay Packers cornerback Sam Shields has said he regrets playing in the NFL, pointing to the effects concussions and head injuries had on his career and his later life. The spotters “serve as another set of eyes, watching for possible injuries at every NFL game,” according to NFL Football Operations. Concussions and their prevention have become an important issue in recent years due to their connection to brain disease later in life. The neurodegenerative brain disease can be found in individuals who have been exposed to repeated head trauma. The researchers hypothesized about a relationship between head trauma and ALS because of a similar link detected between football and the neurodegenerative disease CTE.

The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) report, which used 2018 data from ZSL on the status of 32,000 wildlife populations covering more than 5,000 species, found that population sizes had declined by 69% on average. One population of pink river dolphins in the Brazilian Amazon plummeted by 65% between 1994 and 2016, the report said. Its findings were broadly similar to those in WWF's last assessment in 2020, with wildlife population sizes continuing to decline at a rate of about 2.5% per year, Terry said. "Nature was in dire straits and it is still in dire straits," said Mark Wright, director of science at WWF-UK. Still, the wide-ranging declines have prompted desperate pleas for increased support for nature.

☆ The Formula That Built the NFL’s Breakout Teams
▼ + stars: | 2022-09-26 | by ( Andrew Beaton | ) www.wsj.com time to read: 1 min

It seemed like the Miami Dolphins had orchestrated an odd pairing when they traded their most prized future assets for wide receiver Tyreek Hill this offseason. The move gave them the NFL’s premier big-play threat—to play in an offense quarterbacked by Tua Tagovailoa, whose downfield passing was a glaring weakness early in his career. The idea that a dynamic playmaker could unlock the potential of a young quarterback whose game appeared to have limitations was a gamble. The Philadelphia Eagles, who had the NFL’s most run-heavy offense last year, made a similarly curious decision when they traded their first-round draft pick to acquire A.J. Brown as a new receiving weapon for Jalen Hurts.
