He's the most violent linebacker in the sport. Each death created a monster on the field... at a steep cost. Can the Miami Dolphins linebacker strike the balance? Long's story will shock you.
Wow. Just an incredible portrait of somebody who has been thru and overcome so much. Such strength to allow himself to try to find joy and peace after all he went thru. Absolutely will be rooting for David this year, and hope that 3rd contract after this year is the proper one!!
Rob: Thank you! Appreciate you carving out time on a Friday to read this. Certainly had no clue what to expect heading down there, and very fortunate David Long was so open. He definitely can cash in with a big year to your point, too.
Amazing piece Ty. As someone who's struggled with mental health issues (alrhough nowhere near as severe as David Long), the story resonated. I hope nothing but the best for him going forward. And keep doing what you do to bring us articles like this. Awesome work.

Excellent article man. You caught the somewhat unspoken violent and ugly reality of life and football and what it takes to bridge them so well
Greatly appreciate this, Emory. Thank you.
The longer we chatted, the more that rang true. And it sure sounds like he's finally struck that balance.
