CTE is a brain problem that is caused by constant head injuries that many NFL players have suffered throughout the decades. Players like Jason Kelce have it the worst because they are in the line of scrimmage while getting repeatedly hit on the head. Jason Kelce finally decided to call it quits last season and he recently admitted he may have some level of this medical issue already. In recent days, Kelce was caught saying that he believes race horse Secretariat used steroids during his prime and that there is no way to know he had it for sure. This naturally prompted some interesting reactions from the people who saw his claims.

Antonio Brown latches on to Jason Kelce's potential CTE

One of the responses from a fan who didn't agree with Jason Kelce's claims about Secretariat didn't take his claims lightly and responded by saying: "[Y]ou know who else makes unsubstantiated claims not backed up by facts. People suffering from CTE. I'll admit I don't know whether @JasonKelce suffers from CTE or not, it's impossible to know." But Jason Kelce did surprise everybody by responding with: "I mean I can virtually guarantee that I have CTE, all the research would suggest I have some degree of it. I think it is entirely reasonable to assume I have some degree of that pathology."

A response that retired wide receiver Antonio Brown used to promote a running gag that he has taken a bit too far. In recent months, Brown has actually embraced his potential CTE issues that may explain his erratic behavior. Antonio is known for doing controversial things and he is always talking about this joke that he uses in his tweets every time someone brings up CTE to him. Brown created a social media page known as CTESPN in order to mock the original ESPN network. When Antonio saw a tweet where Jason Kelce says he has CTE, Brown responded by writing: First step is admitting it. #CTESPN."
