The NFL's Concerns Mount as Brock Purdy Faces Another Concussion

TL;DR Summary
If San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy suffers another concussion in today's game, the NFL could face a major controversy.

The league's interest in having Purdy play in a high-profile game adds to the scrutiny, as the independence of the neurologist from the broader NFL apparatus is questioned. The potential for another concussion controversy looms if Purdy gets injured again.
