NFL unveils this year's "Crucial Catch" initiative

The NFL's annual “Crucial Catch” initiative is back for this season, and since the pandemic has had a "devastating impact on screening," with some declining by 90%, the league and the American Cancer Society are "allocating resources dedicated to safely restarting cancer screenings in communities with the most need." The “It Takes All of Us to Intercept Cancer” initiative "kicks off in stadiums Sunday and continues through Week 6 games." A TV spot will include coaches and current and former players who have been impacted by cancer or COVID-19: Bruce Arians, Ron RiveraCalvin Johnson and Laurent Duvernay-Tardif  (AP, 10/1).
