Is there a looming CTE crisis for rugby, or is it already a significant issue?

CTE is looming over any athlete of a contact sport. This lawsuit might be a crisis:

However, when you consider the NFL, which had a similar lawsuit, it is making more money than ever and not having trouble recruiting people to play, so I dunno. The sport itself will likely be OK.
As an aside, this article features Chris Nowinski, who is a leader in this field. If this topic interests you, you might enjoy reading his book Head Games or following him on socials.
