The NFL and NFLPA recently announced the introduction of five new, safer helmets, which will be used by the players starting in the 2024 season.
The NFL and NFLPA announced on April 8, 2024, that they will introduce five new helmets in the coming 2024 season. These helmets are reported to be the best the league has ever had. Here's everything you need to know about the helmets and NFL Vice President Jeff Miller's take on this.
What Did Jeff Miller Say About the Newly Introduced Helmets?
There are 12 recorded helmet models that will be eligible to be worn by players in the 2024 season. The helmets available this season will be more position-specific, with 8 new position-specific helmet models introduced in the 2024 season.
These helmets are designed to reduce the impact of all types of hits that players sustain during a game. These types of helmets were already available to defensive and offensive linemen in the 2022 season. But in 2023, the quarterbacks got these helmets, and 2024 will be the third season of them.
NFL Vice President Jeff Miller shared his take on these helmets. "We're proud to see so many new helmets continue the rapid rate of improvement we've seen over the past decade," Jeff said. Going forward, the VP revealed why these helmets are essential gear for the players. 
"What's more, the growing availability of position-specific helmets is a central part of our effort to provide players with the best possible protection for their position. Quarterbacks and linemen will have a range of tailored helmets available to them with more positions to come in the next couple of years," Jeff concluded.
