Von Miller is not only one of the NFL’s brightest stars, but he’s also a star for his former high school football team. With the importance of protecting players from the long-term effects of concussions gaining attention within recent years, everything from the rules governing when you can return to play, to the design of players helmets has changed.
This year Miller donated Riddell 360 helmets to his alma mater DeSoto High. The Riddell 360 helmet is the same helmet Miller uses for protection every Sunday, and according to their website, is the first helmet design that uses energy managing materials and a face mask attachment system that disperses energy of frontal impacts.
