Watched this kid at Texas A&M. What a super talent in college. Unfortunately the guy is about to destroy everything.

"I have great things coming ahead," he said. "I know I've been having fun but I just need to get my body right. I'm 100 percent committed to playing football."

If he doesn't get help, the NFL should ban him from playing professional football.

I can’t imagine having to lick a serious addiction problem when you are used to being treated like a god (while you have the $).

When I was just a few years older than JM, I was a veteran AND a college graduate. He’s a poor little rich kid.

That’s one problem with sports these days.
Any standout athlete is gonna be treated like a god by adults from middle school on.
Some handle it ok, some don’t.

He’d better get his grocery cart before they all lock up if they’re taken out of the parking lot.

I have wondered what the ‘addiction’ is. Alcohol or drugs and if drugs, which one or is it a combination of drugs and alcohol?

Sounds like his dad has to become one of those ‘tough-love’ parents and kick his rear!

In English, what is CTE?

It’s the concussion-induced brain disease in football players.
