    Damn, that's terrible.

    I have the worst feeling this is related to head trauma from playing in the NFL.

    That is horrible. Did he have a history of concussions?

    Are there any other cases of ex NFL players suffering from head trauma? I don't follow the NFL, but I thought their helmets are pretty top notch.

    A lot of former players have been suffering from mental health issues (both psychological and physiological) after their playing days.

    Lots of cases of suicide, depression, persistent migraines, etc.

    That's terrible. I was rooting for him to win a ring with the Pats. If this is concussion/safety related to the NFL, I wonder what they will have to do to keep their current and future players safe, and what to do with these former players living in hell.

    Damn, was my favorite linebacker, the most explosive player at his position.

    R.I.P!
