We welcome our new doc, Marc Harwood, MD, to SMOT and Virtua to do an excellent and long overdue show on concussions.  We all saw Tua take a moderately hard hit and wind up with another concussion and posturing.  We discuss what this might mean for him as well as anticipated treatments and timelines.  We review some of the preventative measures football has already taken including helmets, caps and collars and how effective these measures might be.
