There was a time in its infancy as a league that the number of deaths and severe injury on the field almost ended the game. Rules regarding types of contact related to tackles, blocking and plays (the flying wedge) were eliminated to improve safety. This also promoted better gear for protection, which continues to this day.

I would say it is concerning if this results in the finding of myocarditis or some other inflammation state of his cardiovascular system prior to the collision. If this country was as interested in soccer as the rest of the world; it would be a different discussion. Funny, everyone ripped Aaron Rodgers for ‘faking’ his vaccine status and that is fair game for the NFL and sports talk - why is bringing up getting the experimental (and they have maintained the experimental status of the vaccine TODAY) vaccine as potential risk to players off limits?

I think parents should think real hard about allowing their kids to to play the ‘game’.
I still carry scars and endure pain from a football injury when I was 17.

Oh heck no. But it should be made safer to play.
