One major health issue athletes face in sports like football is the risk of concussions and other head injuries. These injuries can lead to long-term cognitive and physical health problems if not properly managed. Additionally, repeated trauma can result in conditions such as Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE), which significantly impacts an athlete's quality of life. It is crucial for athletes, coaches, and organizations to prioritize concussion protocols and promote awareness about the signs and long-term effects associated with these injuries.
