Weirdness :blink:

Doctor found dead hours before Samari Rolle lawsuit was to begin

Dr. Craig Brigham, who has been in the news in the NFL this offseason for giving draft prospect Jarvis Jones a clean bill of health and for getting sued by former player Samari Rolle, was found dead this morning.

The Charlotte medical office where Brigham worked released a statement saying he had died from “causes related to an existing medical condition.”

Rolle, who last played in 2008, sued Brigham for negligence arising from a spinal fusion surgery that Rolle claims was “botched.” Brigham was expected to be in court this morning for opening arguments in Rolle’s lawsuit.

Odd coincidence but people sometimes die... Suspect there will be complications in the Samari Rolle lawsuit.

Hope the doctor's family will be ok.

Yeah. It's just a strange story.

Probably wouldn't have mentioned it here but I didn't know till now that this doctor was based in Charlotte.

A sad story for all parties. I know this sounds odd, but I'm glad it was by natural causes, I was expecting it to be suicide when I first read the article.

Stress tends to increase the chance of heart attack.
