There may be some rule changes too...such as eliminating kickoffs altogether.
Until they can install equipment inside your skull, there is nothing that can stop what causes CTE. EVERY single impact that a football player (and many other athletes) takes causes the brain to bang against the inside of the skull. This doesn't necessarily cause a confusion every time. I've seen a lot of comments on CTE being related to concussions, but you can get CTE never having had a concussion that had symptoms.
