The FRONTLINE Interview: Harry Carson

He became an advocate for retired NFL players after retiring from the New York Giants.

He played linebacker for the New York Giants for 13 seasons. Carson was elected to the Hall of Fame, but he says he has not been able to enjoy the honor knowing so many former players are struggling with head injuries. He spoke to FRONTLINE’s Michael Kirk on Sept. 4, 2013.
