Had Witten taken him under his wing I think things would have been different. He might even still be playing. Such a tragedy. Rest in peace.

Wait, it's not Witten's faultis it?

Life can be so short. It's precious.

It's hard to say. We don't know what he could have become. Dallas definitely envisioned him being a second tight end threat.

With all due respect to him….if his career was dependent on another man? He was never going to hit his ceiling.

And that’s ok because it looks like he went on to do something even more powerful. Fight fires for a living and save lives.

Damn. I thought RIP about his NFL career was what this thread would be about. I can't believe it. So sad. Condolences to his family.

Wow, RIP Gavin. Much too young. Prayers for his wife and little ones.

Does anyone have any info on what happened?

I just don't think he got a fair shake here and neither did the other two we took in the second.

He definitely got it started on the wrong team.

They didn’t but Fasano and Marcellus went on to have careers. I’m all for criticizing a guy especially because I do think Witten could’ve done more but I can’t blame that on him.

I take shots at him when they're available.

You have guys who put their whole lives into getting into the NFL and he takes up a spot for the last 3 years. And then comes back holding the team hostage. And then goes to oakland.

No issue with that but this one is a stretch. Fasano and Martellus careers didn’t derail.
