Vincent Jackson Dead - Study Finds He Had Stage 2 CTE

[21&500]

I remember VJ being very generous with his time when me and a few fans wanted autographs
So young, condolences to the family
RIP

RIP Vincent! It's shocking when a person this young dies. His family must be devastated - pray for them.

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't have multiple concussions while he was with us? Just wondering if he was suffering from depression. Looks like he was purposely being reclusive. Doesn't look good on the surface.

Jackson did have a mild concussion, (below). Don't know if there were more. Sure hope it wasn't a factor. RIP...tragic...prayers for his family....

Was thinking CTE but why go to a hotel near home for a month?
No idea unless trouble at home. No one knows but his Wife or close friends.

I had a family member that committed suicide in a hotel room...I think the location was due to her desire to not taint her home with the stigma of the event...plus to be able to carry out the act undisturbed...sad, shocking...prayers for VJ's family...he was one of the best ever...RIP...

very sad news. prayers for him and his family.

Very tragic, indeed, especially for someone so young. Something smells fishy about the whole thing. VJ may have had a good heart, but he did have a history of poor decision making.

I feel for his family.

Guy was a total stud. Wish he'd stayed w/us longer. Tragic news.

[AKFlyFisher]

Absolutely tragic. I have my share of assumptions on what happened, and all of them are heartbreaking. May his family find some solace in the coming weeks, months, and years.
