Antonio Brown declares he isn’t insane

Antonio Brown told “CBS Mornings” co-host Nate Burleson in his first network news interview since the episode that an ankle injury that his coach did not address seriously sparked the on-field confrontation. Some speculated that Brown had mental health concerns or suffered from chronic traumatic encephalopathy, or CTE, as a result of this event. Although Antonio Brown vehemently denies any mental health issues.

He mentions in the broadcast, “I never had a mental health diagnosis. I never had a issue or problem, I don’t take pills. I just got a high IQ.”   

He also disclosed to Burleson that he underwent some counseling through the NFL. However, he could not establish contact with a counselor.
