While it’s easy to tell when a player has a physical injury from the outside, concussions will sometimes go unnoticed. Even when players detect the symptoms themselves it’s easy to understand why they may be hesitant to report injuries. Professional athletes are some of the biggest competitors on the planet, and you definitely don’t want to appear injury prone when your paycheck depends on your performance on the field. But there is a rising need for the league to address the issue of concussions; the NFL has put plenty of regulations to increase security and detection but the most important thing it can do now is address player responsibility.

I make you laugh? And I would be right to ask those questions, because that particular move is no longer laughing matter.

Who’ll be the NFL Draft loneliest number, Wentz or Goff?
One is the loneliest number that you’ll ever do. Two can be as bad as one. It's the loneliest number since the number one. It is pretty much a fact that either Carson Wentz or Jared Goff will be the number one pick in the NFL draft on Thursday 28th. If the former is the first pick then the latter will be second, and vice versa – but who will be which and which will be who?

It is understood that the Eagles will also pick a quarterback around whom to build a franchise.
