Concussed: The American Dream began as a documentary covering head trauma and Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy in sports, exploring the effects of CTE on those that have lost loved ones, with narratives from doctors and Hall of Famers in the NFL, boxing, and mixed martial arts. We began the journey filming the documentary in 2016 and have set out on multiple road trips over 2 years time. Find the blog updates I’ve posted along the way below:
