While some argue that the rules of the game and football culture itself need to change, others are experimenting with modifying something relatively more simple: the helmet. The human brain is protected by a layer of fluid within the skull. However, that layer doesn't provide enough protection during sudden, or forceful impacts. When the brain hits the inside of the skull, this causes a concussion.\n
