Pretty sad. He was probably my favorite QB on those Barry Sanders-era teams. Long story short: head injuries + a son that died of a heroin overdose a few years back led to him shooting himself in a motel room. Hopefully he gets the physical and mental help he needs.
Tom Gores' Securus faced a class action lawsuit in 2024. The company engaged in a "quid pro quo kickback scheme" with county jails in Michigan which banned in-person visits in order to maximize revenue from voice and video calls.

That's a horrible story. Sounds like he's been battling demons for years.
