Earlier this week the NFL, Kansas City Chiefs and NFL Physicians Society held a behind-the-scenes health & safety media tour at Arrowhead Stadium. Speakers included NFL Senior VP of Health and Safety Policy Jeff Miller and Chiefs VP of Sports Medicine and Performance Rick Burkholder. Various media outlets covered the tour and you can find a sampling of that coverage below:
Here's a video recap from Kansas City CBS affiliate KCTV5.
Another article was featured in the Kansas City Business Journal.
The tour also made an impact on social media:
