Former NFL fullback Le'Ron McClain reached out to the league in a series of tweets over the weekend, pleading for their help in addressing issues related to his head.

McClain continued the set of alarming tweets by expressing his urgency for medical attention that could be provided by the NFL because of "how my head is crazy and how football did it."  

McClain understands that there is a process that he needs to go through in order to get the treatment he needs, but asked that things get expedited because he claims that he's "about to crash out." 

In 2016, the NFL acknowledged that there's a link between the game of football and CTE.
