*committed suicide

I don't believe he committed suicide, especially coming from a white person.

Cte injury?

Damn that's so sad prayers up 🙏to him and his family and friends

He had drugs in his system but doesn’t mean it was suicide, I didn’t read anything about a note, people mix pills all the time

RIP, tragic. I’m sure certain people will blame the shot

Suicide is up. Shouldn’t of got trumps vaccine!! Trump knew this would happen

CTE

CTE is horrible. I hope scientists can figure out more to help people suffering from this before they take their own lives.

Very sad. What is being done to protect FB players (youngsters all the way up to the NFL)? CTE hasn’t gone away.

JFC…

When will the NFL stop covering up CTE?
