NFL Star Kylen Granson Explains Why He’s Wearing a Guardian Cap on TikTok

Colts tight end Kylen Granson is fully on board with the Guardian Cap, a new safety device designed to reduce the risk of concussions in football. Given the NFL's alarming 219 reported concussions in 2023 and the long-term dangers like CTE, the introduction of the Guardian Cap—a foam padding worn over helmets—offers a potential game-changer. Although the cap may look unconventional, Granson sees it as a no-brainer for protecting players. Despite some criticism, others have compared the cap to F1’s once-controversial halo device, which has since proven to save lives.
