Favre Welfare Scandal: REAL SPORTS examines the role Hall of Famer Brett Favre is alleged to have played in redirecting millions of dollars away from the poorest residents in the country's poorest state to his own projects. David Scott reports. Producer: Max Gershberg.
Sudden Cardiac Arrest In Young Athletes: When Damar Hamlin collapsed on Monday Night Football, it was a shocking event that stunned audiences on national television. The sight of a healthy young athlete going into sudden cardiac arrest was hard for most people to comprehend. Yet, sudden cardiac arrest happens more than 100 times per year to high school athletes around the country. Since only 16 states mandate automated external defibrillators (AEDs) at high school sporting events, the result of these occurrences is often tragic. Soledad O'Brien reports. Producer: Nick Dolin.

Today, Posey is a 6'2" 240-pound defensive end that finished a standout junior season at Murphy's old high school, where Murphy also serves as an assistant coach. Soledad O'Brien reports.
