My husband also passed away from CTE (former NFL player). My heart breaks for her. Is there a GoFundMe set up for her? Shame on the NFL. Thank you for doing this story.

Every current nfl and ncaa football player should be forced to watch this.

young players should be made aware of playing this dangerous game

This Breaks my heart but I’m thankful you’re bringing awareness to what many former players are suffering with.

Excellent coverage and reporting on this devastating crime. Every one of these players deserve(d) to know the risks involved, and they were denied that by the NFL, an organization that rakes in tens of billions on the backs of their players. These men gave their passion and their lives to the game of NFL football and continue to suffer and die from brain injuries while the NFL uses legal chicanery to avoid any culpability. Disheartening, sickening and sleazy-- shame on the NFL. Thank you for shedding light on this sad situation. I hope the many inflicted players and their families are finally well compensated financially and properly acknowledged as a result.

Very interesting doc revealing the greed and utter shamefulness of the NFL. Sad to say, however, that it will be hard for diehard football fans to quit watching football whether this issue is addressed in a responsible fashion or not.

Pat McAfee, are you able to bring this up on your show?

Their health has always been my concern. It's a dangerous sport and they need to check their health status constantly

Lets set up a go fund me page and help this woman 🙏 hold her head up high.unlike the NFL! NFL is so greedy,it makes me sick.We need to protest the Pittsburgh steelers at there stadium.

The fact that the NFL thought that they could get away with this in a league filled with black players and fans!

I went to high school and college with Carlton so this video really breaks my heart.

Not only that I noticed that in high school the guys who committed suicide had all been on the football team & came to the conclusion that being hit that hard does something to the brain.

What is wrong with you people? I grew up in the Johnstown area. Went to UPJ the same time as CH. No one wins 6 individual college championships with a drug and or alcohol problem! He was the best of the best when he played for for Steelers. Everyone in Johnstown knew and loved him! He did not develop addiction issues until after CTE became an issue. Aren't you people listening? If you haven't figured out by now how crooked, greedy, and evil the NFL is by now, you never will. My deepest sympathy Mrs. Haselrig. You deserve so much better. Are you on FB by your full name?

It’s crazy to me parents still let there kids play football smh

This is indeed an eye opening piece I am so saddened that she has to sell Carlton's accolades to survive. How sustainable is this? We in Africa were told that America is some sort Heaven on Earth... Hos is it that this Lady can not get support?... Anyways, thanks Aljazeera for these very enlightening stories.

This is a heartbreaking documentary to watch. I love watching Football, and even played organized football when I was much younger, but it’s obvious that these guys are putting their future health on the line every time they suit up.

Great reporting

If you think football players were ripped off look at the NHL.

U gotta be crazy as heck to be a football player
