The NFL’s ongoing struggle with CTE: Brain injuries and legal challenges
On Monday evening, a 27-year-old man named Shane Devon Tamura entered the NFL headquarters in Manhattan with an AR-15-style rifle and killed four people before committing suicide. He blamed the NFL for his CTE, a brain illness caused by repeated head trauma. The note he left behind highlights the ongoing debate about the long-term effects of head injuries in football. Despite increasing awareness of CTE in the NFL, the league has been slow to acknowledge the risks and provide adequate support for affected players. The incident has raised concerns about player safety and the NFL’s responsibility for addressing head injury risks in the sport.
