Post by MikeMitchell »

In an interview on Dallas radio. XFL CEO Oliver Luck announced that The XFL has hired Dr. Julian Bailes to be the league’s lead neurologist.

Bailes is the former team physician of The Pittsburgh Steelers. He also spent 11 years at West Virginia. Bales is a founding member and director of The Brain Injury Research Institute. He has also been a consultant for the NFL players association.

Dr. Bailes is a recognized leader in the field of neurosurgery and brain injuries and functionality.

It’s not a sexy hire but again, it shows the league’s commitment towards player safety.
