It's about ratings. Viewers. Algorithms. Money.

Nothing truly bad will happen to the Dolphins as long as they have the interests of The Shield at play.

The independent neurologist that's supposed to be the arbiter does not work for the team. That's the whole point of being "independent".

The protocol was either circumvented or it failed. My guess is that it's the former, we just don't know how they did it yet.
