– With all the concern about potential brain injury and sport team liability, it seems like soccer/football ‘headers’ would concern people more. Why isn’t this practice frowned upon at a professional level?

That’s a question of personal motivation, not necessarily objective reasoning.
And your premise isn’t necessarily true. CTE as a result of headers has shown to be a possibility, with significant controversy surrounding it.
However, it’s a much more tenuous link compared to CTE in boxers and American Football players. So if you’re wondering why nobody is making *as* big a deal as in those sports, it’s because the effect is not as apparent.
