I don't know how there are still people who out there who haven't come around when it comes to this kind of situation. Players see the realities of CTE (at worst) or barely being able to move and having every inch of your body hurt for the rest of your live (at best).
Then again, most are from the generation who belittle mental health issues and avoid going to a doctor at all cost; as if not taking care of yourself is some foolish badge of honor. Sports are not the be all, end all they once were for many. Younger generations, especially the stars who can earn generational wealth in a single contract, aren't going to sign up for a life of CTE, painkillers, or a wheelchair by the time they hit 50.
