The green dot on his helmet indicates that he is wearing a helmet with speakers in it so the coach can comunicate with him on the field. The reason for the dot is so the refs can see who is wearing this type of helmet as it is a penalty to have more than one player on the field at a time wearing this type of helmet. If you notice, all quarterbacks in the NFL have a green dot on the back of their helmets.
Yellow, green, polka dot..?
Yes! You could really go blind from looking to long at a green laser.

They wear fake helmets with no padding, and quick release plastic snaps. They look good for a T.V. show but are not DOT approved and provide absolutly no protection.

The green dot is the result of a new rule in effect for the 2007 NFL season. The green dot helmet indicates that the helmet is wired with a radio for calling in plays to the quarterback. Only one player with a radio is allowed on the field at a time. The green dot on a helmet signifies a player who has a radio receiver in his helmet.
Quarterbacks
A green dot on a helment means that, that player has a radio receiver in their helmet. One offensive player and one defensive player from each team may have a green dot. It gives them one way communication with the coach before each play.
As of the 2007 season, no. The green dot signifies the player that has a radio receiver in his helmet and, as of the 2007 season, no defensive player is allowed to have a radio receiver in his helmet.
The green dot on their helmet is a sign that there is a communication system in their helmets. So the coach can talk to him. There is one player on the offense that has one, and one on defense.
By dot helmet do you mean a Department of Transportation approved type ?
When a motorcycle helmet is DOT certified, that means it has been certified by the United Stated Department of Transportation, following strict safety standards. Once a helmet has been DOT certified it is identified with a sticker on the helmet itself. Unfortunately, not every helmet sold that has a DOT sticker is DOT compliant. Visit the following site for a partial listing of the most popular brand helmets. http://www.helmetcheck.org/database.aspx CarlGlas Any helmet that is DOT approved will have a sticker on the helmet. If you go to a helmet manufacturers website, it will state what certifications the helmet has.
DOT helmets have always been required in any state where a helmet law is enforced.
If the helmet has decals from both the DOT and SNELL, it will exceed the minimum safety requirements of the US Govt.
DOT stands for Department of Transportation. A DOT helmet meets the safety standards set by the U.S. Department of Transportation, ensuring that it provides a certain level of protection in case of a motorcycle accident.
yea
Motorcycle helmets need to be either DOT or SNELL certified, if the helmet has that certification then you can use a scooter helmet on a motorcycle.
