Airdate 10/11/09 Devastating, degenerative brain disease has been shown to be the result of severe repetitive head injuries such as concussions, and no one is more at risk than athletes. Former Patriots linebacker Ted Johnson tells Bob Simon that his depression and other cognitive problems are due to the more than 50 concussions he says he suffered on the field. Note: Most of the NFL footage from the broadcast version has been replaced by still photographs. This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media.
