Ex-Titans TE Frank Wycheck believes he has CTE

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Former Titans tight end Frank Wycheck, who threw the lateral on the Music City Miracle, said in a television interview on Fox-WZTV in Nashville that he's certain he has CTE.

"I'm sure, I'm sure," he said when asked if he believes he had the degenerative brain disease revealed in autopsies of many former football players.

"The punishment I took, the concussions and the dings and all that stuff," he said. "...You can't test for CTE unless you're dead."

Wycheck said he suffers from migraine headaches and depression, doesn't like to socialize and finds himself going into a room and then forgetting why he went there.
