According to a report by TMZ, the police have visited the home of former Auburn running back Tre Mason five times in the past four months, with the latest incident happening this past Saturday.
The report states that Mason’s family is very concerned about his mental health, citing bizarre behavior and angry outbursts, and at least once, Mason agreed to enter a treatment facility but never did.
This past March, Mason was arrested on multiple charges and was tased when he refused to get out of the car. He was taken to the hospital after being charged with possession of cannabis, reckless driving, resisting arrest and failure to register a vehicle.
Mason was excused for personal reasons and didn’t participate in the Rams’ OTAs this year.
Mason helped lead Auburn to the SEC Championship and the BCS Championship in his final season. As a junior, Mason’s 129.7 rushing yards per game led to a school record 1,816 rushing yards on the season and an invite to New York City as a Heisman Trophy finalist.
A graduate of the University of Florida and founder of Saturday Down South, Kevin is a college football enthusiast.
