I played sports with glasses when I was younger, also went through basic training with glasses. Trust me, you do not want our QB with sweat and fog on his glasses trying to hit our brand new 4.3 receiver 40 yards away.

Helmeted sports are horrible for glasses especially football and catcher.

Good point. Didn't Eric Dickerson wear goggles? Not sure if he ever commented on wearing them. It seems like Drew's contacts would fall out more than they do (i.e., the Navarro Bowman turtle neck hit).

I think Dickerson did but running isn't threading a needle with a football or catching a curve ball. I've worn contacts for decades now and they don't come out unless they get dry, something touches them and wipes them out or I take them out.

In all my years of wearing them I sleep on them and have never woken up with them out. They somewhat adhere to the eyeball, not a suction but close to a cling.
