Mike Webster's son asks Antonio Brown to seek help

The Steelers Super Bowl center was the first player discovered to have CTE

The son of former Steelers center Mike Webster is asking Antonio Brown to seek help before it's too late.

Webster, who played for the Steelers from 1974 through 1988, was the first former player ever diagnosed with CTE or chronic traumatic encephalopathy, a neurodegenerative disease.


Webster struggled after his football days dealing with memory loss, dementia, depression and more. Webster died of a heart attack in 2002.

After seeing countless incidents from the former Steelers wide receiver, Webster's son Garrett is asking Brown to get help.

The youngest of Webster's children tweeted a reply to Antonio Brown after he posted a photo with the caption "Super Gremlin."

"Mike Websters son here, get help man. You are struggling and everyone sees it. Don't let pride get in the way man."

Garrett took care of his father during his final days and know what the reality of CTE is.

That isn't to say that Brown has CTE, as some will imply from time to time, but he has taken some nasty shots to the head in his career.
