re: NFL players will be allowed to wear the protective Guardian Cap over their helmets

I feel like they could make a helmet with this padding built on the shell instead of it being attached/placed on top of the helmet.

Its been done before. Steve Wallace wore one for over a decade. It was called the Great Gazoo by his teammates and he was teased about it on air by even John Madden when it got knocked sideways/came off.

Times have changed, and I could see players wearing something similar to this, but not the big goofy practice ones.
