So if I’m reading this correctly, a player, like Fournette, can no longer lower his head to deliver the boom stick?

To initiate contact with the helmet. Its different than just lowering your shoulder. Its basically spearing with your head. And having some personal experience with this (I was injured on a play like this, where I went to tackle as a defender and the guy lowered/speared his head into mine), I actually agree with the rule.

Yes, it's improvement, but it's Blaine Gabbert 2012 level improvement. - Pirkster
