U.S. Soccer rolls out new rules to prevent kids’ concussions

Tens of thousands of kids get concussions playing soccer every year, and heading the ball is considered a main culprit of the injury. Now children age 10 and under will be prohibited from headers, with other restrictions for older kids. William Brangham reports.
