LAKE FOREST, Ill. — Chicago Bears board chairman George McCaskey sees good coming from the new movie "Concussion," even if the NFL is portrayed in a controversial light.
The movie stars Will Smith in the role of forensic pathologist Bennet Omalu and focuses on chronic traumatic encephalopathy, a progressive degenerative disease that has been found in the brains of athletes with a history of repetitive head injuries.
"The important part, I think, is that any attention on player health and safety is a good thing," McCaskey said Friday as the Bears prepared for Sunday's game against Minnesota.
