President Trump is concerned that football might be too dangerous for his own son Barron, but he also complained that the new rules prohibiting head hits "Made the game too soft."
"Trump, who has a long and combative history with the NFL, has previously criticized these new rules, saying they have made the game soft.
"Concussion? Oh, got a little ding on the head, no, no you can't play for the rest of the season," he mockingly said in October 2016.
"They are ruining the game," he said of the NFL's rules in September 2017. "Look, that's what (players) want to do. They want to hit. They want to hit.""
