Very sad. Last I'd read he was seemingly doing better. RIP

RIP. Hoping his family gets the support they need and perhaps the Saints can pay for the funeral arrangements or something along those lines.

They're having financial difficulties? Guess the players' union doesn't offer veterans as much as is touted...

No idea either way on any financial difficulties. Just hoping the Saints would help out since Dempsey was an icon.
