We get it. His politics are different.

Seeing reports that the Bills are flying home. They aren't staying in Cincy (but I would think some of the staff and maybe a couple of players will stay behind).

I think maybe people are sedated when intubated so they don’t move around or stress out from having a tube in their airway.


Well yes. But what’s he being intubated for if his vitals are fine? That’s the question. Not why is he being sedated.

For me it’s not his politics. Just some of the things he’s said around the LSU program I didn’t love

There’s a gofundme for an NFL player? I mean you think the league would cover the costs, or insurance or something. Not like this was someone down on their luck


It’s his charity.

It’s not for him, it’s a charity cause he represented for underprivileged children.

The emotional T&P crowd are an easy target.

No. There’s a fundraiser from 2020 that he was trying to raise $2,500 for a toy drive or something like that. Over $800,000 now.


A little unclear to me what the Chasing M’s foundation is or its goal for what they’ll do with the donations (this is not a criticism. This is me reading and being very confused as it’s a 2-year old fundraiser with no update).

If you can’t see why the players would be more affected by their friend and coworker possibly dying on the field than a random fan they’ve never met, I don’t know what to tell you

Its for his charity which is to give toys to underprivileged kids around the holidays. The initial goal was $2500 and it is something he has apparently been doing since before he was a pro.

His vitals may be 'normal' due to a number of medications—still lots of unanswered questions.

You could tell by the players reactions that something was seriously wrong. There are injuries all the time that appear to be serious, but the players get back to the game. That wasn't the case tonight. They were on a whole different level. One of my first thoughts when they took him off was that they were not going to leave with the appearance he was dead.
