NAPA — The latest layer to the Antonio Brown-helmet saga includes the threat of making the NFL liable if he sustained a head injury in a helmet he was forced to wear.
“I think it’ll be interesting if the NFL forces Antonio to wear a different helmet,” an unnamed source told The Athletic. “And he does play and he doesn’t retire as some people have reported he will do. And then he suffers a really severe injury. I’d hate to be the NFL. Because now you’ve forced him into wearing a different type of helmet. And I think at that point, though, the liability will be dramatic.
