NFL rejects LDT request to add MD to his jersey
https://chiefsupdate.com/2018/06/23/...ersey-request/
Laurent Duvernay-Tardif officially became a doctor this offseason when he graduated from medical school at McGill University in Montreal. Soon after his graduation, he requested the NFL allow him to add M.D. on his jersey marking him the first active player in this league to become a licensed Medical Doctor in a very visible way. Sadly per reports, the NFL refused, although this ruling has not deterred the young to petition for a reevaluation of the ruling. Until then he will be unable to mark the accomplishment on his uniform. This accomplishment can and will never be taken from him, even if the NFL says no to the title on the jersey. I doubt the NFL will ever allow it as they do not want to any player to get individual notoriety. |

DR. FEELGOOD - "Sadly per reports"? - "This accomplishment can and will never be taken from him"? Ah, poor little football doctor got rejected. LIFE SUCKS WEAR A HELMET! - MD = Mission Derailed

To be fair, MD is just one professional degree, and allowing him to do it would probably mean they'd need to allow BS, MBA, etc.

Stupid. Obviously the NFL couldn't benefit from some good pub surrounding medical stuff.

How are ya gonna tell who's who then? And SC hasn't been relevant in over a decade now. The Irish were for one year. Penn State was only because of off the field matters. The service academies haven't in numerous decades now. Plus it might cut into sales. And if it might affect the bottom line it'll never change
