As reported on WCTV.tv, the 2012 NFL Draft picks will show their loyalty to Schutt Football Helmets, a steadfast brand amongst players. Platinum Equity portfolio company Schutt Sports is among the largest football helmet manufacturers in  America, holding a significant percentage of the youth, collegiate, and professional football markets.

Players will express their confidence in the Schutt brand by donning the helmets during the draft and plan to wear them in Sunday afternoon games. “I’ve always been comfortable in a Schutt helmet,” said former Georgia Bulldog Brandon Boykin. “It protects my head and it feels good.”

Close to 80% of the Super Bowl Champion New York Giants choose to wear Schutt helmets.

Schutt Sports offers a wide range of sports gear specializing in protection and comfort, using many of the same materials used by the US military in their safety gear.
