Steve Delsohn describes the emotional and challenging interviews he conducted with former @NFL players who were undergoing early #CTE diagnostic testing. Many of these retired athletes—including Tony Dorsett—were dealing with severe symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and suicidal thoughts. #Delsohn and the #Outside the Lines team documented their experiences as they took the experimental test and spoke openly about the toll their conditions had taken on their lives.
The reporting became one of Delsohn’s most meaningful projects, capturing both the human side of the CTE crisis and the emerging medical efforts to detect the disease in living players. The piece, along with additional Outside the Lines investigations, contributed to the show’s Peabody Award recognition. Delsohn recalls joining fellow reporters and producers on stage to accept the honor, marking a memorable moment in his career.
