"And I’m sure you’ll understand, while it’s too late for me because I’ve recently been diagnosed with Parkinson’s, this is also a cause dear to my heart."\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>Setting aside the embezzlement controversy, Favre's admission starkly illustrates the dangers that football players and other athletes face when they suffer head trauma and how that may lead to brain disorders long after they retire from their sporting careers.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>Most notably is chronic traumatic encephalopathy or CTE, a brain disorder strongly linked to concussions and which's been grabbing news headlines in recent years due to athletes suffering from it committing acts of murder and suicide.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>Researchers have also found a connection between Parkinson's and concussions, but it hasn't attracted the same degree of infamy in sports as CTE.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>Patients diagnosed with Parkinson's have trouble moving, balance issues, body stiffness, slurred speech, and tremors.

"You get tackled and your head hits the turf, you see flashes of light or ringing in your ears but you're able to play — that's a concussion."\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>"So, based on that, [I've suffered] thousands," he added.
