Football coaches in the Ivy League unanimously decided to remove tackling from regular-season practices, per a Tuesday report by Ken Belson of the New York Times.
They made the decision in an attempt to further limit players' chances of suffering head and brain injuries.
No tackling in practice is an extreme decrease from NCAA regulations, which state there can be four full-contact practices each week, but it's a decisive stance on a subject that's plagued the game of football. According to a report by Timothy Bella of Al Jazeera in December 2015, there were 501 reported concussions in the past three college football seasons.
