No it won't according to the kccrow, the data analytics genius. It's only used in 0.001% of tackles (yet leads to 7% of injuries).

Learn to READ. It's from the ACTUAL NFL DATA you dumbass mother****er. The NFL said it was used 230 times and resulted in 15 injuries in 2023. 230/(~1,050 scrimmage plays * 32 teams) = just under 1% of scrimmage plays. 15/230 = 6.5%. So it's used relatively little yet, when it is, yields a high injury rate.

So maybe your tiny little ****ing brain can comprehend the fact that it 1) won't have as big of an impact on the game as you think it will (<1% of plays!) and 2) will reduce unnecessary injury.

I'm done arguing with incompetent ****s. My point is made.
