life-tips
Researchers examined all 19,423 NFL players who took the field for at least one game from 1960 to 2019 in what the scientists said was the largest study of ALS risk in professional football players.

Scientists who conducted the study say they couldn't determine exactly why the rate was higher but suggested that repetitive head impacts and traumatic brain injuries may play a role.
