    CTE and he only played high school football…

    I found no record of him playing in college, much less the NFL.

    Maybe he did other activities such as amateur or backyard boxing, but my quick search didn’t turn up any professional combat sports in his history.

            Either bad English comprehension, or it’s not their native language.

              The first time I read it, it sounded like you were saying “he played high school football. Not even college, let alone the NFL, so why he shoot up the NFL?” I reread it because it sounded off, then I realized you were saying he played what you’d expect to be the least dangerous
