I think it's pretty well known that you could have serious issues while playing. When I played they made sure we knew about this every year.
Besides these are adults, if they want to work in a high risk enviornment then that's their choice. They are well compensated for that risk.
I know it's legitimate to try and shield these guys from head problems but for almost all of them, the risk is worth the rewards. They basically have ran a few guys out of the league because of this protocol. That's crazy, especially if the guy wants to work.
This goes back to the whether you are ok with someone making their own decisions or do you want to make them instead.
