The NFL is getting more high-speed track athlete recievers because of all the protections. Guys like Tyreek Hill, Desean Jackson and Antonio Brown may not have survived making back shoulder catches 5 times a game 40 years ago.

Except getting pummeled to the ground 5 to 15 times a game even with limited knockout shots still mashes your brain.

If that were true you'd see guys doing press conferences from their driveway, or just stripping down and quitting mid game.

Oh, wait

So basically Donald could effectively kill an Olineman and the talking heads would say nothing and keep polishing his pecker..  The league? A fine...maybe. Suppose a lineman actually took him to court over it or better, police investigate and charge him with minimum assault, but attempted murder would be a real kicker.. It'll likely never happen. He'll be praised all the way to Canton..
