How long will it take for Nike, UA, Jordan to start selling a full face shield for football helmets and a dry fit type mask and allow them to be used in football?

Unless it is sealed tight everywhere - neck, ear holes, etc. - that is not going to work. Expelled breath will take the path of least resistance and bring droplets with it.

Seems to me that they could use the same type of ski mask that they wear in cold weather games in places like Green Bay And Buffalo but out of Dri-Fit material.

That’s never gonna work. those that have never played simply don’t understand the amount of oxygen and airflow needed to perform. Requiring athletes to wear this would risk huge health liability for a player heat stroking out and or death. Can you imagine the size lawsuit on a top NFL player or even for a collegiate athlete losing future/potential earnings.

Anybody that proposes something like that has never played football. You would smother in an enclosed helmet system...

Just have all the players play from within a human sized hamster ball. Problem solved.

Let’s say they have those. What about when players take out their mouthpiece and spread saliva?
