SI article I just read said his friend who called 911 said Box overdosed on pain pills. This is the saddest thing about football - we love it for its violence, but that violence comes with a physical cost. Pain moderation is common, but these meds are dangerous and once in a while a tragedy like this occurs.

Very sad. Blah. You have to feel horrible for his family.
