He believes that modern science and digital technology have significantly improved the ability to identify and treat concussions compared to the analog era of the past.

“The science has evolved to a point where they they can recognize it. Like they're able to treat it a lot quicker. Like they know what it is. It was just that when we played, it was a part of the game.”

Ryan Clark believes that death threats against college players for hits during games are unacceptable and that punishment for late hits should be restricted to on-field penalties.

“did he make a late hit yes and they threw the flag that's the punishment for for a late hit isn't it it's a flag it's 15 yards please move on but death threats at any level is unacceptable”

Aaron Glenn believes that while players can be violent on the field within the rules, coaches must prioritize player safety and intervene when necessary to protect players from themselves.

“I say because if it's my decision I'm always going to play there's never going to be anything that keeps me from playing if I could still go out there so you got to pull me back”

The league has implemented many protections for players, but these rules have made it difficult for defensive players to know how to tackle.

“they've already done a lot to to support the quarterback and keep the quarterback safe I mean the whole game has changed in the last 20 years it's not the same physicality uh there's protected players all over the field on both sides of the ball there's no more cutting right downfield”
