This learning resource explores the profound effects of traumatic brain injuries (TBI) in professional sports through three detailed case studies: Muhammad Ali, Junior Seau, and Taylor Twellman. Each case highlights the consequences of repeated head trauma, the development of conditions such as Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE), and the subsequent mental and physical health challenges faced by these athletes. The resource aims to foster understanding of how TBI has shaped sports safety protocols and the ethical implications surrounding athletes' health. Students are prompted to analyze the impacts, warning signs, and necessary changes in sports safety over time, alongside reflections on advocacy for concussion awareness.
