Why was Jason Kelce wearing bubble wrap on Friday at training camp? He wanted to take Guardian Caps to the next level. And because he's a Philly legend.
“Just having fun,” Kelce said. “They say the Guardian Caps add 20% protection, figure the bubble wrap gave me another 2 or 3. Just adding some more protective layers.”
The NFL is trying these guardian caps out this summer. All offensive and defensive linemen, linebackers and tight ends league-wide are required to wear them through the second preseason game.“I wouldn’t say they’re aesthetically pleasing,” Dallas Goedert said.“I think it’s goofy as s—,” Johnson said with a chuckle. “Look at it.”
OK, fair enough. They don’t look great. But if it prevents even one concussion during training camp, it’s probably worth it.“I think it adds a little bit of weight,” linebacker T.J. Edwards said. “Obviously, our pictures aren’t as good. But they’re there to protect us and the league is trying to do what they have to do to reduce injury.”, the NFL said preseason is the part of the season with the “greatest concentration of helmet impacts.
“They’re there for good reason,” Goedert said. “They did studies with them. Anything to keep us safer, why not do it? You only get one brain so might as well keep it as best you can.”
