Crisis on the Field in the NFL

PODCAST: Sports Business Radio examines the crisis on the football field in the Buffalo Bills vs Cincinnati Bengals NFL game after the cardiac arrest and collapse of Bills player Damar Hamlin. Was the NFL prepared for such a crisis? Why did it take so long for the NFL to postpone the game? We share our thoughts on ESPN’s coverage of the crisis as well.
Sports Business Radio Host Brian Berger was behind the microphone on March 4, 1990 when Loyola Marymount All-American Hank Gathers collapsed on the basketball court and later died after a heart episode. He shares a unique perspective and how that night 33 years ago still haunts him. Last night will haunt the NFL players and coaches for a lengthy period of time and they will all need to see mental health professionals.
