Truly a sad story ,Tony was one of the best at his position ever. No one should have to deal with this terrible disease

Man I m just hearing about this, I hate this for Tony Dorsett, I love this guy, he was a great player.

I had the pleasure of meeting Tony while working on his air conditioning. We spent 45 minutes in his kitchen talking about our kids... Loved him as a player, love him even more as a Man. God Bless You TD....

God bless you and your family. Keep on praying to God to restore you completely.

The heartening part about this is that it's now possible to diagnose CTE in a living person. Obviously there's still a lot of work to be done, but this is a good step.

God Bless you and your family Tony. I know this couldn't have been an easy thing to do. First of all admitting to yourself that there's an issue and then publicly speaking on it.

We love football but don't want to deal with the side effects. I grew up watching Dorsett, it's sad!!

I grew up cheering for Tony D. One of the greatest running backs of all time. Youre in my prayers Mr. Dorsett. I pray for a full recovery. Which I have no doubt you'll achieve simply because you are trusting and having faith in our all mighty Father. God bless you sir. Thank you for all the great memories...

This really touched my heart to hear about another former football player suffering from CTE. I watched Junior Seau's family talk about how they donated his brain to science after his untimely death due to suicide. Please Tony make sure you get all the help you need to get better and beat this.

I hope the best for Tony and any other human being who has to go thru this. Good luck sir.
