By his own estimation, Detroit Lions offensive lineman T.J. Lang has suffered four or five brain injuries in his football career. The latest came less than two weeks ago against his old team the Green Bay Packers.
And while Lang admits "it's kind of tough to remember" how he felt when his concussion symptoms first started to manifest days after the game, the ninth-year offensive guard said that injury hasn't done anything to sour him on the sport.
