Why Bears’ 90 Dominique Robinson has a different-looking helmet than his Chicago teammates
Dominique Robinson got a close up during the first quarter of Sunday Night Football.
The NBC cameras showed Robinson looking frustrated after his Chicago Bears‘ defense gave up a rushing touchdown to Brock Purdy.
There was something that stood out about Robinson: his helmet.
It was a bit odd looking.
There’s a good reason, though.
Why does Bears’ 90 Dominique Robinson have a different helmet?
Robinson doesn’t actually have a different helmet.
Instead, he has a covering over his regular helmet that’s called a Guardian Cap.
It’s a soft-shell covering designed to protect against head injuries.
Guardian Caps were first allowed to be worn on NFL practice fields in 2020.
The first time players could wear Guardian Caps in games was 2024.
Robinson had a concussion in November. This is his way of trying to prevent further damage after returning from injury.
49ers superstar suffers injury on first offensive play vs. Bears
The San Francisco 49ers hosted the Chicago Bears on Sunday night at Levi’s Stadium in a pivotal NFC matchup, and the game couldn’t have started worse for Kyle Shanahan’s squad.
After receiving the opening kickoff, Bears linebacker T.J. Edwards intercepted 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy and returned it for a touchdown. On the same play, 49ers left tackle Trent Williams hobbled off the field and went to the blue medical tent.
It’s unclear exactly what happened to Williams, but San Francisco sent Austen Pleasants out to protect Purdy’s blindside. If Williams can’t go for the rest of the game, this will be a huge loss.
UPDATE: The 49ers announced Williams suffered a hamstring injury on the play and is questionable to return.
