Brees won't allow boys to play football at a young age

Facist POS.

I would wait until my kid was around 13 to let him start smashing heads. Let him start lifting first

I agree with him as this was something I thought about the other day with any of my future kids. Kids are constantly developing at those young ages that I don't think i'd let them play until sometime in middle school just so that if they really do want to play the sport they have the chance to before HS.

At the very least I would want to show/demonstrate him the game before throwing him out there on the field as I do remember playing tackle in elem. school but receiving no injuries other then a sprain and bruises.

It is safer when they are younger than when they are older.

4th graders really are not going to hurt each other. They have pads and helmets on and they do not run fast enough, are not big enough, and do not hit hard enough. Junior High is when you need to start worrying because some kids go through growth spurts faster than others.

I would not want my 8th grade son getting trucked by Dylan Moses. That just isn't fair.

Archie did the same thing

Well I would imagine Drew's kids will be playing QB if they play so yes they would get more experience throwing playing 7 on 7 flag anyway. So we are kind of talking about 2 different things here. Learning proper way to tackle versus what his kids will probably be doing.

I'd prolly wait till 6th grade. Most kids that play pee wee then go to Junior High quit and don't wait to quit till high school like most others

I understand football football is a dangerous game. But hell life is dangerous.! I won't shield my future kids from the game that I have loved playing/ watching my whole life. If they want to play. So be it. I will support them 100%. I will make sure I teach them proper technique and fundamentals. If there becomes a point where his health is at serious risk. Then ill pull him. But majority of football players never suffer a severe head injury that we are so scared of.
