Had a conversation at work about this. We both thought exactly what the article says. Never mind the political crap, they are gonna run out of fresh meat.
This is discussed every year. As long as these athletes have the potential to be multimillionaires at a young age, they'll always feel the risk is worth it.

Yes but I’m saying is if they aren’t allowed to play peewee and especially high school football then they are essentially out of it. 99% anyway. Then it will be down to the poor and hungry. A much smaller talent pool.

This has been argued on here before. The NFL is not going away in mine or your lifetime. It just simply isn't. It's much and too big and makes too much money to ever fail or cease to exist no matter what medical scare might be present. And the fact is, for kids, especially high school kids, the glamour of being an NFL star outshines any risk, and I seriously doubt you'd see enough parents saying no to their kids playing football to make a huge dent in the "supply chain" for the NFL. By the time that DID ever happen, the NFL would have a plan in place to promote football to kids outside of schools.
Despite whatever ratings dip it had this year, the NFL is still the king in pro sports and I don't see that changing anytime soon.
