Robert Cooper it is pretty safe to assume that Hernandez did not require the disease during his time in the NFL, the disease had reached a far too advanced stage when he was found dead.

He's straight up borderline personality. He's like my ex-wife. Everything is great UNTIL the switch is flipped, something happens and nothing is acceptable. AB will be fine there for a few weeks. Then he won't be.
You never thought that a sport that routinely encourages players to play through concussions very early on in their life (teens-early 20's) might give someone severe brain damage?
“The only people who know what’s going on in Antonio Brown’s head are Antonio Brown and his physicians” after just explaining that we have no test to diagnose CTE in the living.
Antonio Brown doesn’t have CTE.. yet. He’s always been like this, even on the Steelers. People are just oblivious when the players are performing on the field.
I doubt cte started when he got that big hit. He most likely had it few years from all those small hits in his career it’s just that big hit really brought problems
He must have had a cardiac arrhythmia that stopped his heart. I am so very sorry for your loss. What a terrible, sad experience. Thank you both for making the decision to donate Zachary's organs - from the gift of your son to the gift of life for seven people. I'm praying for you both and your family. 😢💔🙏🏻❤️
In January Antonio Brown hinted he actually uses drugs on twitter. Based off his behavior and the way he has been talking, it seems likely that drugs had a big influence on his downfall. CTE is jumping way to far to conclusion, his clown behavior has more to do with drugs.
I was starting to believe something might be wrong w/A.B., but then he agreed to a contract with the Pats while the ink on his Release paperwork from the Raiders was still wet... In hindsight, his behavior w/the Raiders now seems more like a ploy to get the move he really wanted
Why are you focusing specifically on CTE, though? There could be all *sorts* of brain damage that lead to changes in behavior. For example, lesions to the prefrontal cortex can cause radical changes in one's personality, often involving the loss of behavioral inhibition and self-control. I agree that we shouldn't assume he has any sort of brain damage, but you might want to expand your analysis to more than one specific condition.
That´s not actually true. CTE was discovered many years ago before Omalu even born. Some people will say Benett was the first to discover that CTE was present in the NFL wich is not true at all (the NFL knew about this condition many years ago too). What Omalu did is show the world that the NFL was lying all the time.
Can you do a video on conditioning? Similar to JCVD "breaking" his leg kicking down a tree (I think in kickboxer). From my understanding conditioning is good as the hard bone can come back stronger, but once the soft bone is affected there is a point of no return resulting in irreparable damage to the bone structure.
dami Okoisor it was a brilliant chest move now people want to say it’s CTE they may have it because they don’t see the intelligence behind the man playing a role to his chosen destination since he wanted to be traded.
Doc this might not be the place but I need some advice I’m super athletic and this weird thing has been happening to my right lower leg for sometime now feels like a gnarly cramp but not almost feels like a tear but not. Ever time I run I feel like I been shot in my leg right under my calf hobbles me for 4 or 5 days goes away then next time I try and job it happen again. No one knows anything HELP🤪
Did your MD here say that brain studies are biased? There are multiple brain bank studies; example Mayo Clinic one from 2015. Which show that with players of contact sports; CTE was visible 1/3 of the samples, -with zero cases with non players.
No, he’s just an idiot. He’s been the exact same way with the Steelers but they were better at keeping it indoors. People were just too oblivious to see that Antonio Brown is just a talented clown with a huge ego.
I disagree with the doctor. Antonio Brown's behavior took a turn for the worse after he was knocked out by Vontaze Bufict. The guy's prefrontal cortex is offline. Is it possible that Antonio Brown has CTE in the background and diffuse axonal injury that resulted from that big hit. AB may benefit from psychiatric medications.Lithium comes to mind.
Here’s a question I have after watching your video.Do you think there could be a correlation between Alzheimer’s and head injuries in a patients life? I’m just wondering how many doctors ask early stage Alzheimer’s patients or their families if they’ve ever had head injuries in the past and how many? CTE has brought up these reverse questions for me. Is Alzheimer’s really a change in brain chemistry or is it the result of trauma?
Doctor in this video: "It would be an extremely rare case and highly unlikely to have CTE this early in life." People in chat: "no, it's CTE, I heard about it from a Will Smith movie, and the news."
Brett H dude got rejected from Florida state and had to play at fucking central Michigan despite be a certified blue chipper coming out of the center of football talent(miami area)for a reason
Points very well taken, Dr. Sutterer! We ought to be careful about tossing around such weighty, diagnostic terms like CTE. Also, whether or not he has CTE - determined at some point in the future, when he's passed away - may not really matter as far as the present is concerned. Still, I do worry that AB has some neurological condition, not just from the Burfict hit but also from regular football play, that's steadily worsening and affecting his behavior. So while we cannot diagnose CTE in living people, there are powerful tools available right now to examine how well the brain is functioning. e.g. Would a PET scan, or other neurological tests, be useful in AB's case? How about a full-on psychiatric examination as well, as you suggest? After you posted your video, the New England signed AB immediately after his release, so it's on that organization to look further, if it wishes, into what was really going on with AB, i.e. behaviorally, mentally and neurologically. Perhaps AB himself should request such an examination - for the sake of his health and career - so something can be done, if in fact there is any abnormality, however small.
Nope turns out dude might be an evil genius lool. He was acting out because he wanted out of Oakland😂 and ended up on a much better team in matter of hours. Im shook lol
Medical student here and I have been practicing boxing for 3 years. Could you make a video about boxing and cte or other neurodegenerative diseases?

Aaron Hernandez wasn’t even 30 and had “one of the worst cases” just saying
Aaron Hernandez's father used to regularly beat him as a child. As such his brain trauma may have started even before he started playing football.
I think Hernandez was hit way more than Brown
Tyler Sash is another that comes to my mind, killed himself at 27 and had severe CTE IIRC
Hernandez played tight end and brown played wide receiver. Te’s would be more at risk than wr’s

This is too logical, i was hoping for a case to tell me that Brown may have this
Thank you for your informative advice!
This title made me laugh😂😂
I would be shocked if Antonio Brown doesn't have CTE. It's just gotten worse and worse for him ever since the Burfict hit.
No, all his shenanigans with the Raiders were part of an elaborate plan to sign with the Patriots.
He hired social media consultants to find out how to get released as fast as possible.
Still believe that?
Nathanial Meagher did he hire social media to get kicked off the Patriots too?
I love that you can get better commentary and analysis about something like this on TH-cam compared to a professional news organization like ESPN
Antonio Brown doesn’t have CTE.. yet. He’s always been like this, even on the Steelers. People are just oblivious when the players are performing on the field.
Yo long time viewer here just gotta say your beats in the videos are always fire
Thanks! All from epidemic sound
I doubt cte started when he got that big hit. He most likely had it few years from all those small hits in his career it’s just that big hit really brought problems
He must have had a cardiac arrhythmia that stopped his heart. I am so very sorry for your loss. What a terrible, sad experience. Thank you both for making the decision to donate Zachary's organs - from the gift of your son to the gift of life for seven people. I'm praying for you both and your family. 😢💔🙏🏻❤️
He hasn’t been the same since that hit from Burfict in the Wildcard game
Will forever love these videos
So basically: "I don't know"
In January Antonio Brown hinted he actually uses drugs on twitter. Based off his behavior and the way he has been talking, it seems likely that drugs had a big influence on his downfall. CTE is jumping way to far to conclusion, his clown behavior has more to do with drugs.
I was starting to believe something might be wrong w/A.B., but then he agreed to a contract with the Pats while the ink on his Release paperwork from the Raiders was still wet... In hindsight, his behavior w/the Raiders now seems more like a ploy to get the move he really wanted
Love your videos. Godspeed
I ONLY BEEN SAYING THIS SENSE A BLACK MAN FROM THE HOOD DYES HIS MUSTACHE BLONDE CLEARLY HES NOT RIGHT MENTALLY DAT VONTAZE HIT HE TOOK WAS SERIOUS!!!
EXACTLY
Why are you focusing specifically on CTE, though? There could be all *sorts* of brain damage that lead to changes in behavior. For example, lesions to the prefrontal cortex can cause radical changes in one's personality, often involving the loss of behavioral inhibition and self-control.
I agree that we shouldn't assume he has any sort of brain damage, but you might want to expand your analysis to more than one specific condition.
You’re a stupid fuck
Watch the movie Concussion starring Will Smith to learn more about Dr. Bennett Omalu who discovered CTE.
That´s not actually true. CTE was discovered many years ago before Omalu even born. Some people will say Benett was the first to discover that CTE was present in the NFL wich is not true at all (the NFL knew about this condition many years ago too). What Omalu did is show the world that the NFL was lying all the time.
Why am I just seeing this !!!!!! Thank you for making this video
We’ll find out when we see how he acts with the Pats. If he keeps acting up in Foxbourough, he definitely has CTE
Debonair Jay well
Mike Miller lmao I wasn’t gonna say nothing
Can you do a video on conditioning? Similar to JCVD "breaking" his leg kicking down a tree (I think in kickboxer). From my understanding conditioning is good as the hard bone can come back stronger, but once the soft bone is affected there is a point of no return resulting in irreparable damage to the bone structure.
Saef Ali It works but it causes mad arthritis and shit later
He's a genius. He was just acting that way so he could play for the patriots lol
dami Okoisor it was a brilliant chest move now people want to say it’s CTE they may have it because they don’t see the intelligence behind the man playing a role to his chosen destination since he wanted to be traded.
@@bruceguillory2453 yeah, he is brilliant, so brilliant that he is out of the league. Genius? Not quite.
Doc this might not be the place but I need some advice I’m super athletic and this weird thing has been happening to my right lower leg for sometime now feels like a gnarly cramp but not almost feels like a tear but not. Ever time I run I feel like I been shot in my leg right under my calf hobbles me for 4 or 5 days goes away then next time I try and job it happen again. No one knows anything HELP🤪
2022 *Update* he jus walked out in the middle of a game and got cut by the bucs.
We need an update cuz he’s not on the Bucs anymore
Welp, you have Aaron Hernandez for example
Did your MD here say that brain studies are biased? There are multiple brain bank studies; example Mayo Clinic one from 2015. Which show that with players of contact sports; CTE was visible 1/3 of the samples, -with zero cases with non players.
1/3 or 33% is very different than the 80 to 90% in the NFL study. I’d say that’s “biased”.
@@NT-or9wh 33% was for all, including hobbyist, which make it more scary. Non professionals are majority in that study.
Short answer: Yes
No, he’s just an idiot. He’s been the exact same way with the Steelers but they were better at keeping it indoors. People were just too oblivious to see that Antonio Brown is just a talented clown with a huge ego.
I disagree with the doctor. Antonio Brown's behavior took a turn for the worse after he was knocked out by Vontaze Bufict. The guy's prefrontal cortex is offline. Is it possible that Antonio Brown has CTE in the background and diffuse axonal injury that resulted from that big hit. AB may benefit from psychiatric medications.Lithium comes to mind.
I think AB is just a lunatic
What's the objective criteria for diagnosis on a deceased individual upon autopsy?
Well he had a concussion in the 2015 playoffs I say prob
Here’s a question I have after watching your video.Do you think there could be a correlation between Alzheimer’s and head injuries in a patients life? I’m just wondering how many doctors ask early stage Alzheimer’s patients or their families if they’ve ever had head injuries in the past and how many? CTE has brought up these reverse questions for me. Is Alzheimer’s really a change in brain chemistry or is it the result of trauma?
The film on it of the famous dr from Nigeria, great film
I like how the bandaid is over his angular gyrus.
Doctor in this video: "It would be an extremely rare case and highly unlikely to have CTE this early in life."
People in chat: "no, it's CTE, I heard about it from a Will Smith movie, and the news."
Brett H dude got rejected from Florida state and had to play at fucking central Michigan despite be a certified blue chipper coming out of the center of football talent(miami area)for a reason
Points very well taken, Dr. Sutterer! We ought to be careful about tossing around such weighty, diagnostic terms like CTE. Also, whether or not he has CTE - determined at some point in the future, when he's passed away - may not really matter as far as the present is concerned. Still, I do worry that AB has some neurological condition, not just from the Burfict hit but also from regular football play, that's steadily worsening and affecting his behavior. So while we cannot diagnose CTE in living people, there are powerful tools available right now to examine how well the brain is functioning. e.g. Would a PET scan, or other neurological tests, be useful in AB's case? How about a full-on psychiatric examination as well, as you suggest? After you posted your video, the New England signed AB immediately after his release, so it's on that organization to look further, if it wishes, into what was really going on with AB, i.e. behaviorally, mentally and neurologically. Perhaps AB himself should request such an examination - for the sake of his health and career - so something can be done, if in fact there is any abnormality, however small.
He has TBI Doc! Too many hits to his frontal lobe which houses emotion/behavior!
This video isn’t aging well…
Nope turns out dude might be an evil genius lool. He was acting out because he wanted out of Oakland😂 and ended up on a much better team in matter of hours. Im shook lol
Agreed, you make great videos.
2022 update: yes he definitely does
Medical student here and I have been practicing boxing for 3 years. Could you make a video about boxing and cte or other neurodegenerative diseases? I think many people would be interested and there is few info available. Do you think that someone could have some of the cte symptoms on a small degree from a young age?
