Favre, 54, revealed the diagnosis while testifying before a U.S. House committee about his role in a controversy over millions of dollars of misspent welfare funds in his home state of Mississippi.
Companies run by former professional wrestler Ted "Teddy" DiBiase Jr. received "sham contracts" in Mississippi and misspent millions of dollars of welfare money, according to a new federal indictment.
In a new public service campaign released Tuesday, Favre lays out the reasons why: It'll reduce the risk of being diagnosed with chronic traumatic encephalopathy, or CTE.
