Another really good piece from my interview with Matt Hasselbeck ⬇️ He’s an ambassador for the Concussion & CTE Foundation as they are trying to encourage former NFL & CFB players to sign up for the DIAGNOSE CTE Study — the goal is to learn how to diagnose CTE...

NFL players have 42x the risk of dying from ALS before age 50, according to a new study from Concussion & CTE Foundation, Mass General Brigham, Harvard, and the Boston University CTE Center that I coauthored and was published last week in eClinicalMedicine, an open-access journal from The Lancet. There is clearly a connection between repetitive head impacts, CTE, and ALS, and it affects more than just NFL players. Former college players are likely at elevated risk too, which doesn’t surprise me as two former players from my college football team, Harvard – Michael Vollmer ’90 and Mike Ernst ’83 – have both developed ALS. With only 33 NFL players – from 30 teams – dying of ALS between 1960-2019, having two from only college football programs is extremely unlikely unless it’s linked to playing football. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive disease that destroys the nerve cells controlling muscle movement. While ALS is uncommon in the general population, researchers say these findings provide the strongest evidence yet that we need to explore head impacts in sports as a cause of ALS.

Today we announced, on behalf of the Kneeland family, that former Dallas Cowboys DE Marshawn Kneeland has been diagnosed with stage 1 CTE by our research collaborators at Boston University CTE Center. Kneeland died by suicide in November 2025 at 24 years old. Despite playing in the modern era of concussion protocols and better helmets, he still developed CTE. What that tells me is we have no reason to believe the current generation is at a lower risk of CTE than previous generations. Concussion protocols do not prevent CTE, because CTE is caused by repeated head impacts, not just concussions. If we want to reduce CTE risk, we must implement CTE prevention protocols and aggressively reduce the number and strength of head impacts at every level of the game. Suicide is complex and multifactorial. A post-mortem CTE diagnosis should not be considered the cause of a suicide and is not known to be a risk factor for suicide. We encourage anyone worried about suspected CTE symptoms to reach out to he Concussion & CTE Foundation HelpLine team for support at If you or someone you know is struggling, the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline is available 24/7 by calling or texting 988.

Former Boston Bruins enforcer Lyndon Byers had stage 3 CTE. It’s heartbreaking, but sadly, it’s not surprising. For years, the science has continued to grow while NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman continues to deny the link between repetitive head impacts in hockey and CTE. Researchers at Boston University CTE Center have now diagnosed CTE in 19 out of the 20 former NHL players they’ve studied. This is not about attacking hockey. It’s about telling the truth, supporting players, and making sure the next generation doesn’t suffer in silence because the people in power refused to listen.

My take on Giants RB Cam Skattebo saying CTE is not real? Disrespectful. He's since apologized calling it a “tasteless joke,” but as someone who knows the stories & the families of the almost 400 NFL players diagnosed with CTE, there is nothing funny about it. Skattebo has been given a gift by these families - the gift of knowledge. He now knows he's at risk for CTE. Those who built the NFL did not. He benefits from their support of CTE research. We need football players like him to stop denying the science and join us in the fight to end the disease so we can find a cure in their lifetime.

Michael Brooks, a former teammate of mine at Harvard in 1999, passed away last November at just 45 years old. He was the second member of our team diagnosed with CTE, and the first person under age 50 in the UNITE Brain Bank diagnosed with CTE with limbic-predominant age-related TDP-43 encephalopathy (LATE), named as such because it usually doesn't appear in the brain until after age 80. If you or a loved one is struggling with symptoms of suspected CTE, the Concussion & CTE Foundation HelpLine is here for you. Reach out at to get connected with free support and resources.

Manhattan Massacre: Did CTE Pull the Trigger? The REAL Story with Dr. Phil. A shooter opens fire in Midtown Manhattan, leaving four innocent people dead and a note mentioning the NFL and his brain disease, CTE. Can CTE truly drive someone to such an extreme act of violence, or is the truth is far more complicated.

I’m deeply saddened to share that my friend and former New Zealand Rugby Union player, Shane Christie, was diagnosed with stage 3 CTE by researchers at the University of Auckland. He was just 39 when he passed away last year. As a member of our Australian advisory board, Shane was a powerful advocate for greater support for players living with brain injuries.

"No one has stepped in to fight against the UFC. Anyone who speaks out against them — you're just a disgruntled former athlete, or you've got CTE. The people in power... They're not going to work for us. They don't care what we have to say. It's disgusting." Matt Brown on why he feels it's necessary to speak up for fighters.

Uploaded the video explaining this tweet. The Thrall in #ZenlessZoneZero is not the worst boss in the game, and I believe is actually a GOOD boss design to help ENCOURAGE players to properly learn how to engage with bosses in ZZZ. Run Time: 45min
