the league really can't prevent anything, only try to penalize players after the fact for helmet-to-helmet hits (which is how most concussions happen). you can tell players not to do it and harm of penalties, but in the heat of the moment players often aren't going to regulate themselves.

They should distil the essence of American football by inventing a new sport that just consistents of two teams of heavily armoured and extremely burley men headbutting each other into submission. I bet people would watch the hell out of that.
