Former football star Antonio Brown has shared his concerns online.
On Monday, Brown mentioned CTE on social media, suggesting that the multiple head injuries he endured during his football days might be affecting him now.
“My CTE acting up F–k all y’all whoever played on my name,” Brown posted.
This man has been on a public roller coaster downfall, first time in the past five years any self recognition. Anyone that clowns him for addressing his problems is an ass. Honestly hope this is real (minus 99 post tweets) and AB gets help. Long road to recovery but never gone. https://t.co/moBkBZ9fzG

This dude has officially jumped the shark with his CTE.
He has broken the 4th wall and become self aware https://t.co/4Be1qo1gZY

While CTE can only be confirmed after a person has passed away, Brown seems convinced he’s experiencing its effects.
Supporters hope for the best for Brown, noting that the past few years have been challenging for him.
Many wish that Brown finds the support and care he needs.
