Well here's a story about NFL gambling that flew well under the radar due to the NFL's hegemony over the media even in modern times with more options than ever. I remember Ridley showing up regularly as a top receiver in the receiving stats.
I think we'll be seeing more, not less, of this sort of news. Ridley bet on NFL games including those of his own team.
The tell that something is up from off the field is when a player suddenly disappears and they cite of course any given mysterious health issue so as to hide behind medical privacy laws akin to many another public figure.
In short and as I figured, the leagues are well behind the curve on getting ahead of more of this sort of common behaviour when it's never been easier to place bets en masse:
he needs to have the best ever season anyone ever came close to in order to try and get the most yards per game played and the most tds per game played away from Brees.
