Will Damar Hamlin’s injury change the NFL? Why a safer game could turn away fans

LA Times  

The game of football and its fans have never been particularly squeamish about injuries. “‘You won the game of life.’” With tests ongoing, it remains unclear whether Hamlin’s cardiac arrest was caused by his first-quarter collision with an opposing receiver or, perhaps, a pre-existing condition. In the NFL, fans like to see big people running into each other.” — Todd Jewell, a Texas State University economics professor “The analogy I always use is, people like to watch NASCAR and part of the allure is the crashes,” said Todd Jewell, a Texas State University economics professor. As one donor wrote on the GoFundMe page: “This is bigger than football.” Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin prepares to tackle Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins during the first half on Monday in Cincinnati. It’s going to make people think a little bit.” — Todd Jewell, a Texas State University economics professor Still, experts wonder about any lasting effect.
