Keegan Michael Key Suggests NFL Outlaw Helmets to Prevent Head Injuries

Comedy titan Keegan-Michael Key has an idea to stop Vontaze Burfict-style helmet-to-helmet hits in the NFL ... and while it's definitely out there, he might have a point.

He's suggesting the end of the helmet. The way he sees it ... no helmet means no helmet-to-helmet hits.

We got Key out on the town in L.A. (super nice guy BTW) and asked him what he thought of the league suspending Burfict for the 2019 entire season for that nasty hit on Colts tight end Jack Doyle.

Key said the hit was definitely over the line, but floated that idea that the head will always be used as a weapon, if the head is protected.
