Steve Delsohn discusses the investigative work that earned him a Peabody Award while at @espn Outside the Lines. The piece focused on CTE and featured interviews with former @NFL greats including Tony Dorsett, Leonard Marshall, and Joe DeLamielleure, who spoke candidly about the symptoms and long-term effects they were experiencing.
At the time, the widely accepted belief was that #CTE could only be definitively diagnosed postmortem by examining the brain. Delsohn’s reporting highlighted new developments at #UCLA, where leading researchers were working to determine whether the disease could be identified in living patients through emerging diagnostic methods.
The story became a significant early look at one of football’s most urgent health issues, documenting both the medical research underway and the personal impact on players dealing with its consequences.
