Get rid of the pads and helmets and serious injuries will subside
If you change the compound of helmets and pads to a foam that's a little denser than a nerf football you eliminate most of the injuries. This has been known for a couple of decades. It doesn't get done because it doesn't look as cool and takes some of the violence out of the game

Unless you can stop intercranial inertia you can't do shite to prevent most injuries

Softer helmets would cause more spinal injuries.
