Wow. Crazy how this flew under the radar for so long. Very sad situation and the fact that it's been 7 months with no updates is heartbreaking (and says a lot)

I wonder about the correlation between him being a football player and going missing...CTE?

I wonder about the correlation between him being a football player and going missing...CTE?

Hate to say it but this is my immediate thought as well. CTE is way more prevalent than people realize. Suicide or death by misadventure due to CTE symptoms would be my guess too. Really horrible. I hope they at least find him soon.
