"It shouldn’t come as a surprise that Duvernay-Tardif is mastering another field of work. The 27-year-old says he is planning to become the first football player to step onto an NFL field as a physician next season.
“I want to put Duvernay-Tardif M.D. on my jersey,” he said. “I’ve already started a conversation with the league office and they say that anything is possible.”
But before he takes his medical exam in May, Duvernay-Tardif decided to dip a toe into journalism. He pitched the idea to Radio-Canada to work as a reporter, combining his medical knowledge with athletic experience to tell stories about what athletes endure at the Olympics."

Where does he find the time?
I went to med school in the US. I grew up on the border. I can tell you that Canadian med school is much more rigorous!!! He is impressive!
Virtually all of the medical breakthroughs are by white male American doctors.
Where does he find the time?
Some people are just really, really smart. This guy is brilliant and a superior athlete. Impressive.
