∙ 15y agoNo, football players no longer wear cups because the are faster and more comfortable without them. Also cups mainly protect you from injuries caused by high-velocity impacts such as baseballs and hockey pucks.

A lot of high school football players wear a cup because they are concerned about getting hit in their sensitive area. I do not think that most professional football players wear a cup, however; I think that they just wear a regular jockstrap without a cup. If you are a teenager and are concerned about getting hit in your sensitive area when you play football, then you should wear a cup so you feel secure.
