Memory loss doesn’t worry Browns player

-

Browns Pro Bowl tackle Joe Thomas isn’t overreacti­ng despite some recent spells with memory loss. Thomas revealed he has experience­d some moments of forgetfuln­ess, but he’s not convinced they are directly connected to a lifetime of football or 10 seasons playing in the NFL. Thomas said doctors have told him memory lapses — he mentioned forgetting his car keys or why he was at the grocery store — could simply be aging and the result of a busy lifestyle. Thomas has three young children, business ventures and charity work outside football. He said he’s not in denial or ignoring the problem, but he’s not going to panic, either.
