He mentioned guys like Andre Waters, who he thinks was depressed from the symptoms of several concussions, and then killed himself. And that was before this latest tragedy w/DAve Duerson.

I definitely see the NFL putting more emphasis on tackling techniques such as wrapping the player up instead of putting a hit on the guy.
