Black Agenda Radio · Damar Hamlin and the Business of Football

Garrett Bush is host of the Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show, The Barbershop, and the Locked on Browns podcast. He joins us from Cleveland to discuss Damar Hamlin, the NFL player from the Buffalo Bills who suffered a critical injury on the field. Hamlin is recovering and is now in fair condition. But the multi-billion-dollar business of football puts profits before the wellbeing of players, most of whom are Black.
