Not with a defender model with an 18 inch barrel.

Not if he used his big toe. Or used a shotgun with a sawed-off barrel.

I just went and ‘sized’ up my Mossberg defender with an 18 inch barrel.
No problemo.
He was a big guy though, could of probably done it with a full size shotgun.

This is a big problem that is not going to go away for the NFL. It can end tomorrow. At least future problems. All the NFL needs to do is give the players back their leather headgear. But that won't do for the NFL. They might lose revenue if the game lost any bone crunching excitement.
Very sad to hear about Junior. He was such an intense player. And a great guy from what I've read of him.

I just tried it with my old Remington 12GA. Sit in a chair and use your toe. No problem.
Did it take one shot or more?

I would impose weight limits.....no more than 250 pounds, there was a time when a 300-pound player was unheard of...now they are not only over 300 pounds, but they are fast as well. That’s a bad combination.

"Isnt shooting yourself in the chest with a shotgun almost impossible?"It would take a VERY deliberate effort. Even with a pistol grip shotgun without a stock, it wouldn't be easy. Maybe the thing had a sawed off barrel...... (OR SOMEONE SHOT HIM)....

What is the incidence of concussions for rugby players? If it is lower than that of football players, that would be very telling.

Another story says "handgun" which makes more sense than a shotgun.
Throughout his Chargers career, I recall he was good to the San Diego community and a first class player. I can't imagine the anguish his mother's going through.
If brain injury did cause major shifts in personality, as I've seen happen in stroke patients, I can understand why he'd want "out" before he couldn't recognize and control who he was and do so in a manner his brain could be preserved for study.

Isnt shooting yourself in the chest with a shotgun almost impossible?My guess is he did it this way to avoid a mangled head or face at his funeral....out of consideration to his family

Rugby is a very different sport. Large portions of what happens in an NFL play, perfectly legal with the rules stuff, is against the rules in rugby. They just don’t run at each other as much, there’s not as much emphasis on bringing people to the ground. Football is a collision sport, rugby gets some collisions but that’s really the point of football.
