Not that I don’t have empathy for their health but a lot of these players can walk away much earlier and still have a ridiculous amount of money compared to the average citizen.

I’m also not willing to believe that football players aren’t just like every other person in America when it comes to depression, anxiety, stress, etc and bad days like this can happen.

This idea that football players wouldn’t drink and drive or have a run in with the law if it wasn’t for CTE is misguided.

CTE is real but it can’t be the first excuse used anytime a player gets in trouble.
