Makes you wonder if it's concussion related.

Makes you wonder if it's concussion related.

My first thought. Barber ran as hard as any running back I've ever watched and he never shied away from the hits. Hope he is alright.

Glad to hear he's doing well, he was a great guy in college. Hopefully those close to him can get the gun(s) out of his possession, too many stories of former NFL'ers with head trauma that end don't end well.

This is so sad.

I freaking loved MBIII.

I remember seeing him at a Halloween event for kids at Mary's Place. A great guy who was great with the kids.
