Expert says Waters' suicide was football-related

In an alarming piece in the New York Times on Thursday, an expert in forensic pathology claims that former Eagles icon Andre Waters sustained significant brain damage during his playing days that led to depression, and ultimately, suicide.

Dr. Bennet Omalu says that Waters' brain had degenerated to that of an 85-year-old due in part to the many concussions he endured on the playing field.
