Former NFL safety Dr. Myron Rolle has joined the NFL Players Association as a strategic advisor focusing on player health, brain cognition, and preventative care. The pediatric neurosurgeon, who was a Rhodes Scholar at Florida State and drafted by the Titans in 2010, brings medical expertise to the union while drawing on his playing experience.

"This sport gave my family joy, discipline, and community," Rolle said in a statement. "To return now, as a physician, researcher and former player, and contribute to the wellbeing of the men who make this game what it is, feels deeply meaningful."
