Last November, the medical scrubs and lab coat of former Kansas City Chiefs offensive lineman Laurent Duvernay-Tardif were placed on display at the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Duvernay-Tardif made headlines last year when he opted to forgo the 2020 National Football League season and instead put his medical training to work as the coronavirus began spiraling out of control across the globe.
