I didn't read the article so maybe it mentioned this but....

His college roommate and teammate at S Carolina committed suicide about a year ago.

O.J. Murdock, the Titans receiver who committed suicide on Monday, is being remembered as a great friend by those who knew him well.

Titans tight end Jared Cook had been Murdock’s college roommate at South Carolina before becoming his teammate again in Tennessee, and he told reporters on Monday that he was stunned to learn his friend and died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

“It is a horrible thing,” Cook said. “You just don’t see things like this coming. He was an awesome dude, he really was.”
