  1. Wow. Seems more and more like it’s mental illness. Wonder if concussions have a part in it. Hope he gets better soon

  2. Were there ever any indications of this at Notre Dame? (Not asking for personal details.)

  3. Hoping the best for him. Sucks to lose him, but sooo glad we have Bowers. Otherwise fans would be acting a lot more toxic

  4. Fuck that sounds like some serious shit. Sounds like he’s getting support from the team, which is good.

  5. Shit like this is scary. Hope everything stays internal, ain’t no one’s story to tell but his.

  6. Hoping that he makes it out of whatever he’s going through ok. We don’t need or deserve details.

  7. Best wishes. Whatever it is must be big. Bright kid with a big future ahead. Hope this doesn’t affect his dreams.

  8. This is almost a more interesting story than anything else this season just because everyone has been so absolutely tight lipped about it.

    Don’t get me wrong, I’m not advocating for any kind of obligation for the public to know his business. But my natural curiosity takes over. I don’t recall anything like this.

  9. He is 23, this must be some serious shit. Glad the franchise is doing their part and supporting the players this way. The Raiders are not required to pay Mayer’s salary while he is out, but they can opt to do so. Let’s hope they do!!!

  10. Hope he gets well and pulls through. My guess it’s Bipolar or some other mental illness.
