Who was the NFL player who said somebody was going to die in a game? Prayers to him and his family and friends. RIP. God bless.
So terrible. Prayers to his community and family

I love this game but man it has to change. Just isn't a sport that will withstand Father Time.

"Northeast Louisiana Ambulance Service was on the sidelines during the game and rushed onto the field to help when Cameron was injured.

The cause of death is under investigation, but KNOE reported Cameron broke his neck."

There won't be any returns in the future. Just let the kicker kick or punt and the opposing team will start when the ball hits the turf.
NFL is taking a hit this year

Between this, Brady, & the new concussion movie.
I believe we will see the end of HS football in the next 15 years.

Terrible news.
As long as high school football

is a path for free rides to college along with feeding the NFL, it isn't going anywhere. Plus, it is a great revenue making machine for small communities.

Watered down, perhaps but not going away.

Way too much money involved in college football and the NFL for high school football to ever end.

100 years from now. Or maybe even at the end of this century.

With stuff like this, the concussions, the CTE, I think it's going to eventually become a game ONLY the poor will play as a perhaps their only way of improving their economic status.

He was the punt returner. This is very sad to read. These helmets are a lethal weapon.
