Bell's Suspension To Two Sports Case Study

Concussions in football happen more often than any coach or parent would like to admit. It is human nature to try and work past any kind of injury we may have, especially when it’s sport related. When asked what he would do, Jacksonville Jaguars running back Maurice Jones-Drew- along with 23 of the 44 other NFL players interviewed- said they would try to conceal a possible concussion rather than pull

During halftime of the game the referees tested the balls and they were underinflated. The NFL announced that Tom brady would be suspended for four games in the 2016 season. Tom brady did not think it was fair for the NFL to accuse him without evidence, so Brady took the NFL to court. Brady did smash his phone before the NFL could investigate and use it for evidence a good reason some people would accuse Brady of being involved. After the season of 2015-16 was over the NFL announced that Tom Brady's four game suspension was back into full force. I do not think Brady will try to appeal this time, because he beat the court twice and what is the point when they come back and suspended him anyways. Everyone has their own opinion so what is yours did Brady really

Rushing players back to the field has been a hidden but serious problem. Many players try to rush back to their job in order to keep it. One player lost his starting job for missing one game due to a concussion. Another was released after missing six games due to a concussion. Many players sometimes hide their symptoms or act fine in order to keep their job. The professional leagues are tough businesses and jobs are important. One player played six games with a concussion in fear of his job. After the sixth game, he sat out and got treated because he could not take it anymore. Luckily for him he could not lose his job. In his contract it stated injury could not be a reason for release. Many other players do not have this clause in their individual contract (NFL). Not playing games due to injury is very tough especially if a

In the National Football League, many players have the risk of receiving a concussion. Many players that receive concussions are sidelined for multiply weeks and cannot play in the games they miss. For example Chris Miller had received multiply concussions during his career in the NFL. He was then forced to retire after receiving “5 concussions within 14 months” (Kia Boriboon, 2013). He tried to make a “comeback in 1999 but was sidelined again by another concussion” (Kia Boriboon 2013).

Lots of eyes will be on Butler, who has the size and speed to potentially take over for Williams – the current Z receiver on the roster. Williams should put up better numbers than Mohamad Sanu – the Bengals’ former number two receiver who signed a five-year, $32 million deal with the Falcons. If Sanu’s 33 catches, and near 400 yards receiving last season set the table for the deal he signed this offseason – Williams should be seeking something

I've never really been big on watching NFL but now knowing how they handle head traumas makes me not want to support it at all. It’s crazy to me how professional medical people can just ignore true scientific findings like that. Several more athletes after Mike webster suffered head injuries from getting their “bell rung” but nothing was really done about it after they were hit and knocked out they returned to the game after feeling a little better and waking up. Someone's health is way more important than success in a game.

The Saints currently have Obum Gwacham penciled in as their starting left defensive end in their 4-3 scheme, but New Orleans could definitely use an upgrade. Williams would be a better option than relying on a former sixth-round pick to consistently pressure the quarterback, and he would provide more upside at a premium position.

Meanwhile, Dan Hanzus of the NFL’s official website said that Cherilus’ rehabilitation did not “progressed quickly” as planned. Because of the slow recovery, the 6-foot-7, 316-pound Haitian-American missed almost all of the summer’s trainings, which led to the team’s decision to finally let him go.

In March 2012, the NFL distributed sanctions to Saints coaches and front-office staff for their parts in the bounty scandal. Sean Payton was suspended for the entire 2012 season and Gregg Williams was suspended indefinitely. Loomis was suspended for the first eight games of the 2012 season. The Saints were also fined the maximum fine permitted under the league constitution. Commissioner Roger Goodell also took away the Saints second-round draft picks in 2012 and 2013. In May of 2012, the NFL suspended four current or former Saints players that were involved in the bounty scandal. He also gave the league's teams until the end of March 2012 to confirm in writing that they do not have any bounty programs. Teams were also required to confirm that

According to Les Bowen of the Philadelphia Daily News, Eagles cornerback Ron Brooks suffered a ruptured quad tendon in today's game against the Minnesota Vikings. Brooks suffered the injury late in the first quarter as he was trying to make a tackle.

* FYI: QG Wimbush experienced a devastating blinding-sided blow (i.e., a cause to hand-contusion) to his left hand, while playing against the Wake Forest Demon Deacons. However, that particular ND-away game ended in a 48-37 victory for the Irish. Afterwards, Coach Kelly mentioned the solution of wearing a padded glove to protect Wimbush's non-throwing hand, in order to protect his valuable quarterback from sort of 'ill effects,' according to "NBC Reports." However, according to investigations, tendons may be damaged and still be ignored to as extent. Unfortunately, if this foreseen, injury is not doctored to the point of non-participation, a player's conditions may worsen. Fans and football enthusiasts are keeping an eye on this kind of matter. It takes weeks and even months to

However, one thing he will have to improve at in the NFL is blitz pickup, which is a struggle for many young running backs. We all remember McCoy had an issue with this when he was a rookie but improved. If blitz pickup is the only miscue of Cook's game, then the Eagles are in good shape.

In a recent interview with ESPN, Le’Veon Bell said that he believes The Steelers would have beaten New England if he wasn’t physically injured during the playoffs game which led to their loss to the Patriots, and the Patriots advance to the 2017 Superbowl.

This past off season bell didn’t come to football for a little. So he just come like week
