Helmet Manufacturer Defends Product After Patrick Mahomes' Helmet Cracks in Playoff Game

Despite the cracking in subzero temperatures, VICIS insists their ZERO2 helmet protected the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback.

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes' helmet cracked during a playoff game against the Miami Dolphins, but the manufacturer, VICIS, insists it did its job in protecting him.
The game was played in subzero temperatures, which VICIS suggests contributed to the helmet's cracking.
Mahomes remained in the game after the incident, switching to a replacement helmet which initially didn't fit due to the cold.
VICIS' ZERO2 helmet model, which Mahomes was wearing, uses a multi-layer technology designed to absorb and disperse impact forces.
The incident has sparked discussions about equipment storage during extreme weather conditions, as Mahomes' replacement helmet was initially too cold to wear.
