Steelers WR Bernard to Wear Guardian Cap All Season

Steelers rookie receiver Germie Bernard confirmed he'll wear a Guardian Cap all season during an appearance on the Not Just Football with Cam Heyward podcast. The extra helmet protection comes as recent studies continue to highlight the link between football and long-term brain health issues.

Bernard mentioned his girlfriend expressed concern about his long-term health, prompting his decision. The league initially resisted allowing Guardian Caps in games but has since relented as more players adopt them for safety despite their bulky appearance. beltedkingfisher.blog
