I'm learning how to protect the ball more. I'm also learning how to make good decisions with the ball.

We try to give them to players who are in the most high-level contact situations, like the quarterback, receivers, running backs and linebackers. But the No. 1 priority is someone who had a concussion previously.

He had at least one or two (concussions) as a ninth-grade player on JV. So we put him in one immediately. He might have had a slight one (concussion) over the three-year period he was on varsity, but it didn't seem to take on the same seriousness as it had.
