Ron Rivera explained why he's in favor of the Guardian Caps, which have been met with some criticism around the NFL
that the decision to vote to accept the Guardian Caps was “very easy.” All linemen, running backs, tight ends and linebackers are required to wear them at practice from now through the second full weekend of preseason games because the NFL has found they lessen the chance of head injuries by 20% if both players are wearing the caps during a collision. The chances drop to 10% when only one player is wearing a Guardian Cap.
“I don’t feel the difference as much as I hear it,” Rivera said. “You don’t hear the clack of the helmet at practice—you’re just not hearing that sound anymore. So you can tell it’s absorbing the shock. Secondly, I think it’s making our guys more aware of what they’re doing, and the guys are keeping their heads up more.
“It’s there, and it’s helping remind the guys on the right way to do things,” he continued. “So to me, it’s been a huge plus. And I think it’s something we should take a long look at, for how we handle OTAs and minicamps.”
