American football is full of exciting competitions, but we realize the danger! Helmet safety in football remains an immense problem as the sport is responsible for the highest incidence of concussions. From football helmets to leather, the technology for safer helmets has improved dramatically and continues to improve. The development of newly developed helmets and technologies has reduced the risk of head injuries for players. Additionally, improvements in helmet testing methods have led to a better understanding of head injuries and the protective ability of helmets. In this regard, the safety of football helmets still remains a challenge, such as the need for a proper categorization system to classify helmets and regulations to improve the safety of helmets. Regardless, the standards and regulations attempt to address helmet safety through government intervention and a proper measurement system for football helmets. Despite the cultural perception of football, measures are taken to ensure safety, such as reforms and education regarding safer football. I intend to direct technological advances and football regulation towards the discussion of helmet safety. Therefore aggressiveness in football culture should embrace stronger helmet standards and regulations which are promoted through improved testing methods and innovations due to the need to prevent further dangerous head injuries, especially concussions. Literary Analysis After car accidents, traumatic brain injuries in sports are the second leading cause of traumatic brain injuries for people between the ages of five and twenty-four. This results in immense concern given that American football accounts for the highest incidence of concussions (Rowson and Duma 2130). Also, the...... middle of paper...... and Stefan M.
