The FRONTLINE Interview: Sydney Seau

Her father was legendary linebacker Junior Seau, who in 2012, committed suicide at his California home. After his death, researchers at the NIH discovered CTE in his brain. She says football changed her dad, leaving him forgetful, depressed and prone to fits of sporadic anger. She spoke to League of Denial author Mark Fainaru-Wada on Feb. 15, 2013.
