Is this the guy that had severe CTE? That terrifies me. He obviously had other issues but I just watched a thing about CTE and I think he was mentioned.

[browneyedguuurl]

Yeah. Apparently his CTE was some of the worst researchers had ever seen.

[kimda]

That is so, so scary.

[sassandthecity]

It's so emblematic of our culture that people treated him fucking men was the real scandal.

still judging you bitches who said he was hot. he had a twohead.

[crash31]

Is it true that his ex-wife (or fiancé? Not sure if they ever got hitched officially) got his NFL contract paid out to her and their daughter bc in Massachusetts they have an ancient but still used law that says if you die while appealing a conviction (like he was) the conviction is thrown out, and the Patriots had to pay the guaranteed $$?

[for_serious13]

I’m pretty sure that’s what happened

[matsaurus]

If you have to make this why not just make it another American Crime Story?
