He may have been gay or bisexual and in the closet.

He hung around with the wrong people, even after getting into the NFL.

He was a frequent drug user, preferring to be stoned on marijuana all the time.

He took his share of head injuries playing football, and when he died at 27 he had stage 3 CTE (chronic traumatic encephalopathy) which in turn could have made him more violent.

He was a mess.
