- 16:3116:31, 10 March 2024 diff hist +241 List of NFL players with chronic traumatic encephalopathy →Former players listed as plaintiffs in lawsuits against the NFL for brain injuries suffered while playing: moving reference to lawsuits filed in living players section here
- 16:2916:29, 10 March 2024 diff hist −25 List of NFL players with chronic traumatic encephalopathy →Living former players diagnosed with CTE or ALS or reporting symptoms consistent with CTE or ALS: I considered putting both the player's age when symptoms started and leaving their current age, but it's too visually confusing. Their current ages can still be found by clicking through to each player's personal page, and the reader could then make their own rough calculation of how many years a player has been living with their symptoms.
- 16:1116:11, 10 March 2024 diff hist −50 List of NFL players with chronic traumatic encephalopathy →Living former players diagnosed with CTE or ALS or reporting symptoms consistent with CTE or ALS: The edits provide some general reorganization, plus an explanation about replacing some former players' current age with the approximate age when the referenced source indicates that the symptoms began, which provides more relevant information about the impacts on their lives. The average age of 51 was posted many years ago and is no longer accurate.

- 21:0921:09, 9 March 2024 diff hist +42 m List of NFL players with chronic traumatic encephalopathy →How players are affected: his record for having the most rushing attempts because of the number of collisions involved is more relevant than his team name
- 20:5020:50, 9 March 2024 diff hist −425 List of NFL players with chronic traumatic encephalopathy →Living former players diagnosed with CTE or ALS or reporting symptoms consistent with CTE or ALS: removing both because the links don't provide any evidence of CTE, and neither did a web search of their names

- 20:0220:02, 9 March 2024 diff hist +1 List of NFL players with chronic traumatic encephalopathy →Living former players diagnosed with CTE or ALS or reporting symptoms consistent with CTE or ALS: now set to the referenced Roger Jackson, who played DB for the Broncos in the 1980s

- 15:5515:55, 9 March 2024 diff hist −67 List of NFL players with chronic traumatic encephalopathy →Deceased players suspected of having had CTE: This last sentence doesn't provide any useful information. The title already says the list is of players "suspected of having had CTE".

So I'm changing Forrest Blue's note back to 'early 50s'. Tag: Undo
