The new FX series 'American Sports Story: Aaron Hernandez' delves into the life and death of former NFL star Aaron Hernandez, exploring the multifaceted factors that contributed to his violent crimes and tragic end. Based on extensive reporting by The Boston Globe, the series examines Hernandez's upbringing marred by abuse and dysfunction, his struggles with identity and sexuality, and the impact of CTE on his behavior.
In 2009, superstar tight end Aaron Hernandez helped the Florida Gators win a national championship. In 2012, Hernandez played in a Super Bowl for the New England Patriots and signed a $40-million contract extension. But that same year he was investigated in connection with a double homicide. A year later he shot Alexander Bradley, one of his best friends, through the eye and murdered another man, Odin Lloyd.
“We obviously don’t want to say CTE is what turned Aaron into a murderer — he’d been exposed to violence and was prone to violence — but he did become very paranoid with an even shorter temper,” Zicherman says, noting that Hernandez’s drug use also would have exacerbated his brain injuries.
