Jim Kelly Comments on Concussion Suffered in Super Bowl XXVI, Safety of Football

Add former Buffalo Bills quarterback Jim Kelly to the list of people concerned with concussions and the overall safety of football players.

Kelly appeared on the Howard Simon Show (via WGR550.com) on Monday and said, “I had no clue where I was,” when discussing his Super Bowl appearance against Washington in 1992. Kelly commented further, per WGR550.com:

Maybe I should have got hit upside the head earlier in the game... I probably would have played better cause I think I threw two touchdowns when I had a concussion...

I just pray that they continue to work on the right form of getting tackling, to make the helmets continue to get better, because everybody out there, from commissioner Roger Goodell to everybody out there, they're trying to make it as safe as possible.
