—”may have had a concussion at one time.”

If only that were so.

If you know any jocks ask them about the guys that “shake it off” and get back out there for the team.
It doesn’t go away, they add up, like hits on a nail.

More than a few kids are screwed up just in high school.
Helmets help but do not prevent concussions.

And to broaden your knowledge on this subject, check out contrecoup concussions.
I recall the neurosurgeon explaining it to me...
It does not take all that much of a hit.
