Ravens S Bennett Jackson: Flags Thrown to 'Make People Aware' of New Helmet Rule

Thursday's Hall of Fame Game between the Baltimore Ravens and Chicago Bears marked the first NFL game since the league implemented a new helmet rule.

Baltimore safety Bennett Jackson walked away from the matchup believing the league is going to use the preseason to set an example, per ESPN's Jamison Hensley:

"I feel like they're trying to harp on it a lot more in preseason, so they're going to throw flags even on times when it's not necessarily head-to-head, just to make people aware of it.
