History

Historical Context

After the NFL’s 2013 $765 million concussion settlement, the league adopted baseline neuro-cognitive testing and stricter helmet-to-head rules. The NFL Players Association secured a clause requiring annual assessments, and Commissioner Roger Goodell’s 2009 policy memo reinforced penalties for illegal hits. Today’s Bears-Titans joint preseason practice in Nashville reflects that safety framework as Titans receiver Wan’Dale Robinson undergoes concussion review.
