Fearless with Jason Whitlock - Merrill Hoge Reveals the Truth About CTE Media Won't Tell You | Jason Whitlock Harmony
Description
Former Pittsburgh Steelers running back Merril Hodge joins Jason Whitlock to challenge the prevailing narrative around football, concussions, and CTE. Drawing from his own career-ending head trauma and years of research for his book Brainwashed, Hodge argues the link between football and CTE has been extremely exaggerated. Whitlock and Hodge walk through Hodge's 1994 injury and phone clearance, the Buffalo hit that ended his career, his lawsuit that helped change NFL protocols, and what he says the scientific evidence actually shows.
