Puffy helmets
How do they pick who wear the goofy looking padded helmets? Are they based on head injuries we’re not privy to? It seems random.

at TC the other day...it was the front 7 on defense and the whole OL. Probably a few others that are at risk.

I feel like I've seen running backs wear them more than anybody, but that differs from what everyone else is saying.

I think it’s any position you’ll see in the trenches besides the QB, of course.

OL, DL, LBs, TEs, and RBs.

I read an article about it when they first rolled these out and I want to say that’s it.. I suppose the numbers don’t show WRs and guys in the secondary are at greater risk while just wearing the normal helmets.

Though I will say that it seems like a dumb thing for the league to do. They’re essentially admitting that these players are at great risk of sustaining TBIs while suiting up in normal helmets in Sundays.

I still don't understand why they use such hard materials in football gear. Shits basically a weapon.

There’s a theory out there that if they wore safer equipment they’d just hit harder. Arguably the lighter the equipment, the more people would take it easier. I don’t know if it’s the hardness of the equipment as much as it is defenders trying to hit stick guys instead of form tackling

They explained this in an episode of "Sport Science" a few years ago. Basically the hard shell of football pads spreads the force of the impacts over a larger area very quickly, whereas pads made from a soft foam wouldn't be able to do that, so all the impact force would have to be absorbed by the foam in a much smaller area, making foam pads far less effective. Seems counterintuitive, but makes sense when you watch the simulations.

They're called GUARDIAN CAPS (named for the company Guardian who makes them) and they're mandatory this year for all 32 teams OL, DL, RBs/FBs, LBs, TEs all have to wear them in camp.

Apparently it reduces helmet impact by ten percent. Reduces camp concussive injuries.

So then, why not wear them all season?

Bet you guys would love that.

That would mean ACTUALLY prioritizing player safety. Not just putting on a show.

Just don't wear two guardian caps at the same time, it reduces the effectiveness.
