Certain Report said that the NFL's medical committee is planning offering players echocardiograms after Chicago Bears defensive end Gaines Adams' death this month.
Adams died Jan. 17 of an enlarged heart, something an echocardiogram can detect. NFL teams already give extensive physicals to players. Stress testing and echocardiograms are conducted when the results of the physical, an EKG and family history indicate the need. NFL medical people and outside experts who sit on the league's cardiovascular health committee previously have discussed making echocardiograms standard. They're doing so again, pending the final pathologists' report on Adams.
We hope all the players with NFL jerseys would be healthy with the gradually upgrading rules and equipments.
