Article about first known case of CTE in person w/o known concussion history

My initial thoughts in this regard. (1.) Not all concussions are documented.  May or may not be a factor.  (2.) It is indisputable that cigarette smoking increases likelihood of lung cancer, however some people who’ve never smoked are diagnosed with this disease.  (3.) We may not understand every factor that contributes to or increases risk of a disease, but we cannot disregard that which IS known.
