Former Eagles right tackle Jerry Sisemore played for the 1980 team that made it to the Super Bowl. Sisemore talks about his Eagles teammates who were diagnosed with CTE, and shares about his own struggle with cognitive disorders. Guy Morriss played 11 of his 15 seasons in the NFL with the Eagles. He went on to serve as an offensive line coach for the New England Patriots, and as the head football coach at the University of Kentucky and Baylor University. In 2016, he was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. “He didn’t even know who he was,” said Sisemore. “He died from the inside out.”
