Quarterback Brett Favre discussed concussions and ending youth tackle football in an interview with the Daily Mail on Wednesday.
Favre has a Super Bowl ring and three NFL MVP awards to his name after 20 years in the NFL. While the 48-year-old has been retired since 2010, he is looking to prevent head injuries and chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE).
He talked about how the conversation around concussions has shifted since his playing days.
"You would never come out of the game for a concussion because nobody thought concussions were that bad," Favre said.
