A couple of months ago, former Alabama and NFL FB Le’Ron McClain went on an expletive-laced tirade against the NFL, saying he needed help with his mental health.
However, he claimed the NFL wasn’t helping him. Now, a couple of months later, it appears that’s still the case.
McClain went on another rant on Twitter on Friday night, but at the end, he did say he was checking himself into a mental health facility:

That came after a profanity-laced tweet and some other since-deleted tweets:
- They really f****** denied me!!!!!! WTF!!! Man like damn. Man this is crazy.
- I need a doctor who is willing to test my brain for CTE and all other things. I need help can any doctor help me please. This not the normal since this summer and they say ole you fine. Denied do what you got to do puppet. @NFL today I felt helpless cause of your decision. ThankU
- Devastated and do they care. Nope sit up on there high horses looking down on me as the help. Thank you @NFLPA thanks for not having my back. This is really bad and ridiculous. Imma post the denial letter. And you telling with a headache right, no sleep for 5 nights thats normal
Hopefully McClain gets the help he needs. This is certainly a scary situation for the former Alabama standout.
