Risk of Concussion Doubles for NFL Players in Cold Weather

NFL players risk their health every time they play a game - especially if it’s cold outside.

An emphasis has been placed on preventing concussions because they lead to severe long-term health problems, such as chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE).
