In “The NFL Star Who Believes His Brain Is Already Failing Him,” we break down the story of Larry Johnson, a two time Pro Bowl running back who believes the years of hits he absorbed in football are now catching up with him. Johnson has described memory loss, headaches, mood swings, anxiety, and what he calls “blank spots,” while saying he believes he is living with CTE. CTE can only be confirmed after death, so Johnson’s belief has never been medically confirmed. This video looks at Johnson’s rise with the Kansas City Chiefs, the brutal workload that defined his career, and the frightening symptoms he says he now lives with.
