Jason Hairston took his own life. What a shame. I’m scratching my head and can’t make no sense of it.

He was an NFL linebacker and his problems with CTE weren't hidden. He talked about it some in interviews. CTE has caused the death of many football players and not just via suicide. One study looked at 111 deceased NFL players and 110 had it.

Such a shame. Kuiu packs changed the way I'm able to hunt. I used to get really bad neck/shoulder pain from my old backpacks but not anymore. So sorry for his family.

You forgot to mention that all 111 were entered in the study because that had suspected brain issues before they passed. They weren’t random.

Very sorry to hear about his death. I have a good friend that knew him well and was interesting listening to him tell about his old friend.

I do have some of his outer wear and it was built for the hunting outdoor person. Quality was what his products were about. Cost more but was top notch quality.
