Doctor: NFL Player Who Killed Girlfriend, Self Likely Had CTE

(CNN) -- Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Jovan Belcher likely had a
devastating brain disease when he shot and killed his girlfriend and then
himself two years ago, a doctor says in a new report.
.
Dr. Piotr Kozlowski, who prepared the report, found tangles of tau
proteins in seven sections of the hippocampus structure in the brain,
findings consistent with other players diagnosed with chronic traumatic
encephalopathy, or CTE. The hippocampus is a seahorse-shaped structure
crucial for memory.
.
CNN had an outside neuropathologist validate the findings of Belcher's
pathology report. The doctor said the results appear consistent with CTE,
which is concerning because tau is not normally found in such a young
brain.
.
CTE is a progressive degenerative brain disease found in some athletes
with a history of repetitive brain trauma. More than 50 former NFL
players, including Junior Seau and Dave Duerson, have been posthumously
diagnosed with the disease. Many have committed suicide.
.
Belcher's body was exhumed in December, a year after he was buried.
