Safe to say that Jake Bates is the Pride of the @Lions! Two close-shave FGs and Detroit is 8-1! @NFL #GoLions


Is it my imagination or does @Buck’s voice sound different on #MNF? Hope he is not having throat issues.

It's when you feel overwhelmed that you shift into the next gear and do an even better job, @stephkuzy

On mental health🧵 August was rough. I know publishing #SaferSidelines is a blip on the radar of all the work sports medicine professionals have done for decades. But the constant death updates felt like a major step backward. And with it, I felt honestly overwhelmed.

Dear September - Thought we would never make it to you. August left us truly questioning athlete health and safety. At least 10 athlete deaths. Is that what it will take for schools, parents & youth leagues nationally to take this seriously? Probably not. But we’ll keep trying.
