This is pretty sad. He must have been suffering from severe depression. Too bad no one knew it.

Wow. I wonder what was going on with him. Just about the worst kind of news you could hear about anybody.

Don't you wish you could have about 30 minutes with this kid? Just to tell him that it'll be OK? That none of the problems you are facing will matter 10 years from now?

Mike is right. There are people that knew something wasn't right. For whatever reason, they didn't address it.

I don't know if anyone knew or not. I just feel it is an incredible tragedy for such a young person commit suicide. He also left a year old son behind. The Broncos have committed to support the child.

Kudos to the Broncos for that, very classy move.
