Would Our Professors Let their Kids Play Football?
We caught up with professors from the Reynolds School of Journalism and asked them one simple question: would you let your child play football? Science tells us no: football can be terrible for the brain. American culture tells us yes, football can be played safely at the youth level. Host Charlie Riggs sits down with two people who played youth football, Reyden Morrett and Sean Sear, to discuss the professor's answers and their own experiences in the sport.
