A great comment on this from Jets linebacker Bart Scott back in 2012, "“I don’t want my son to play football,...I play football so he won’t have to. With what is going on, I don’t know if it’s really worth it. . . . I don’t want to have to deal with him getting a concussion and what it would be like later in life.”

Howie Long said something similar, even though two of his sons went into the NFL: http://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/redskins/nfl-tries-to-i...
