Was he released from the psychiatric hold? nothing in google. he hasn't tweeted in over a month and his twiiter still has Bills pics on it. just wondering what the update is... Until he or those close decide to disclose info, we know what we will know. It seems he’s not ready to talk yet and friends/family are seemingly onboard. Or we likely would’ve heard something in the last month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of drugs/booze, untreated mental illness, with a little bit of CTE mixed in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless if it was due to CTE, roids, or something completely unrelated to football, it is sad to watch someone going through it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The assumption is that it’s a continuation of his long term mental health issues with drugs possibly being layered in.... But that’s just a guess based on available context. He’s long had troubles though and this isn’t his first time being committed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Richie Incognito won't be charged by police in gym incident, report says At least Richie Incognito won’t have any legal issues stemming from a bizarre incident at a gym in Florida. Incognito, the four-time Pro Bowl guard who was released by the Buffalo Bills earlier this month, was accused of throwing a dumbbell at another gym patron. That prompted a forced mental evaluation of Incognito. However, police in Boca Raton, Fla. told USA Today that Incognito won’t be charged with a crime.

This is probably his last opportunity to seek help (if he hasn't already) without being charged with something. I really wish him the best. He was a helluva player. He has a chance to help others now and he seems (when he is getting treatment) to have that capability. Edited May 30, 2018 by JoeF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he can use his popularity to help others/encourage others to get help who need it. Something good can come out of this. A lot, actually. I hope he seizes this moment for his own sake and for the sake of others. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punching Bag Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 (edited) Incognito seems intelligent enough to realize when he is in his right mind that he is cause of these issues. He seemed to seriously take chance Bills gave him to change reputation and it worked for a while but he stumbled again. Hopefully his friends including ex-teammates can help him but he needs to seriously want it and needs to find support structure.

I dont see any other football players/athletes doing this. He's got mental issues and I believe more importantly, Growin up up issues. Becoming a responsible adult.

If I understand the professors here at TBD School of Law, that means he didn't do it, right?

Something is amiss, but it's impossible to specify anything at this point. Perhaps being sent for a psych evaluation can determine this, but we cannot. I have no idea if it's CTE or mental health issues, but it is something. We know much more about the brain, but not nearly enough and especially considering everyone's is different.
