This makes me so angry.If the nfl wants something to protest,this is it.IMO the owners are treating the players as bad as they ever treated the 'plantation niggah'.That brain scan pic is horrific.
The white brain dead fossil billionaires pay em millions,so what?Thats chicken feed in their world.They are buying,selling and killing the players as sport,and theyve known for a long time now whats been going on.
So far they have tested 101 NFL players brains,100 have had CTE.

Check out Arron Hernandez's brain
Hernandez's brain was examined after he killed himself in his jail cell while serving a life sentence for murder. His family sued the NFL claiming it knew of the dangers of football
A post-mortem brain scan shows the severe damage to Aaron Hernandez's brain from years of head trauma while playing football. It was the most-severe case of CTE ever reported
Former Chicago Bears defensive back Dave Duerson shot himself aged 50 after reportedly suffering years of cognitive and motor issues.
He purposely pointed the gun to his chest instead of his heads when he took his own life in 2011, leaving a suicide note that said he wanted his brain to be examined by scientists.
'Please, see that my brain is given to the NFL's brain bank,' the note read.
Duerson was later found to have CTE.
He played from 1983 to 1993 - before many of the new safety rules were put in place to protect the head and at a time when research was slim on the long-term effects the impact of football can have on the brain.
A year after Duerson's death, former player Junior Seau was found dead with a gunshot wound to his chest.
The 20-year football veteran's brain examination also revealed he had CTE.

Though CTE can only be diagnosed after death, former players have come forward convinced they suffer from the neurodegenerative disease.
Earlier this month former NFL star Larry Johnson spoke out and said he has demons in his head that almost pushed him to jump off a roof - blaming years of repeated blows to the head which he believes have resulted in CTE.
He added that he suffers memory loss and cannot remember two full seasons of his time in the NFL.
Johnson has a history of violent behavior including six arrests, five of which were assault charges against women.
Other former players including Mark Gastineau, who played 10 seasons with the New York Jets, have been diagnosed with crippling brain conditions such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and dementia while former New Orleans Saint Steve Gleason has been diagnosed with ALS.
All of these conditions are believed to be tied to years of constant blows to the head.
These are just a few cases of the hundreds of football players, both dead and alive, who have been diagnosed with traumatic brain injury or show signs of CTE.
