Apparently there is a manufacturer of a newly designed football helmet that is already being used at the collegiate level and in the NFL. The company is Xenith, LLC who manufactures the Xenith X1 football helmet. The design incorporates newly designed shock absorbers, incorporated into a "Shock bonnet" that includes an anchored chin strap assembly that is designed to reduce the overall incidence and severity of traumatic brain injury.
Their web site is
