We have a similar law being proposed here as well but it focuses on how long the player stays out of the game or what procedures must be followed to come back. I do not find this redundant as rules will change and the laws may not. Rules of the game are not laws of the land. I am not saying that I would like such a law, but I certainly can understand why something is being constructed to cover this on some level. Often laws like this do not consider the application and only want to make a law to cover something. I think the law should apply to the schools and coaches as they are the ones ultimately responsible for their kids. Officials often have no idea what a player might be experiencing as it relates to a concussion.

Peace
