It is indeed a rough sport. That said, any sport has risk. My grandson plays football and is very good. Colleges are already looking at him as a freshman. But he had his worst head hit (so far) falling on the hardwood during a school basketball game. But I wish he didn’t play football - he’s also very smart and I want to protect that beautiful mind!
