NFL Introduces Guardian Caps, Reduces Concussions by 50%
Oct 3, 2024, 03:45 PM
The NFL has introduced Guardian Caps, a new helmet technology aimed at reducing concussions. According to NFL officials, the Guardian Caps have helped reduce concussions in preseason practices by nearly 50%. Despite this game-changer, many players are reluctant to adopt the new technology due to concerns about added weight, functionality, and style. Defensive Tackle Evan Anderson, who has no history of concussions, wore a Guardian Cap during a game, citing his comfort with the cap from practice sessions. More responses are expected as the season progresses.
