Put the padding on the outside of the helmet and make it about 2 inches thick. It would reduce concussions and remove the weapon that causes a significant portion of football injuries.

You are right but.....Helmet companies and helmet reconditioning companies aren’t going to let that happen. Too much lost revenue. Nocsae already voids certification for using padding on the outside of the helmet.
