Today's athletes are bigger and faster by more than a little. These athletes also practiced longer and harder than ever before. Beyond the numbers and physics of the resulting collisions are autopsy results. If there is evidence indicating that the cerebral autopsy results of suicide or demented footballers is comparable to the general population, lots of folks would be interested in reading it.
