Then there was Lawrence Phillips.

Rae Carruth (Missouri) and Aaron Hernandez also come to mind, talking head cases in pro football.

Terrell Owens was more of a big dumb kid with a sad story, that he tells in his book.

He was raised by his mom and grandma, never knowing who is dad even was. Then at around 14? (done forgot) he finally finds out who his father is, he was living right across the street with a new family. How sad is this....his dad tells him he can't afford to buy him anything for Christmas, he has to buy for the other kids...........ouch!!!!

Just stupid would be stud Raider WR Warren Wells, he was why Daryl Lamonica was called ...THE MAD BOMBER...he had been a 9.4 sprinter at Texas Southern. Just think Mahomes to Hill. Wells got popped for drug sales, yep, prison time.

What

Weird post, dude. AB has issues but not sure they're manifesting themselves in murder and suicide.

(And Rae Carruth was Colorado.)

There are different degrees of head case. There is obviously something just not right with AB just like those I mentioned. And if not held back we have no idea what he might have done.

Yep, Colorado, the BIG 8, Missouri???

Players who caused problems, that wasn't pretty obvious?

Weird...

Then there was Cookie Gilchrist a 250 pound FB back in the early days of the AFL. He is the answer to one of my pet triva questions......what great pro ball carrier never played college football? He went straight from HS to the CFL, then the Bills, the AFL's first 1000 yard rusher.

Check it out....


For someone named Cookie, there was no sweetness to his game. As teammate Paul Maguire remembered to writer Tim Graham on ESPN.com,

"On the football field, he was one of the nastiest sons a b—— I ever met in my life. There was absolutely no fear in that man."

Before one critical playoff game, as Maguire remembered, "Cookie stood up ‘I’m going to tell you something. If we don’t win this game, I’m going to beat the s— out of everybody in this locker room.’ " Then Cookie pointed at coach Lou Saban. "’And I’m going to start with you, Coach. I’m going to kick your ass first.’ I just sat back in my locker. I knew he meant it.’ "

But Cookie wasn’t seen as a leader just because he could play. He was outspoken He was loud. He was unapologetic.

Can't forget Pacman Jones.

So is this a thread on "crazy" NFL players? Requires context

Oh I see. :thumb:

Most players never do anything out of the norm. Can we say that about those mentioned above and Chad Johnson, Randy Moss? I bet we never hear of Christian McCaffrey or Dax Prescott or Larry Fitzgerald ever in any kind of trouble.

Is this guy the brain injured Barret brother Eli Barrett? I mean we have Cooper Barrett who is the most talented of the Barrett brothers especially with slapping pictures in a post and would have been a star if not for the injury, but this guy, this guy has got to be Eli. Dammit, Peyton Barrett better not show up next

Work with me here slugger.

AB would have physical attack Mayock if not held back, what does that tell us? Think about that, we could be talking about somebody in the hospital over that. What if nobody had been around but AB and Mayock?

What if Mayock had kicked AB ass?

Dude, yes like those others mentioned AB is dangerous.
