Current Event - Current Death Of Professional Football Player Shock's The Nation.

- Darrent Williams - Former Bronco's Corner Back, shot dead from a fatal wound to the neck.

Over the course of the last two years, three Professional Football players have been shot. First, Dallas Cowboy Saftey, Keith Davis, who was shot in the head and in the thigh. Second, San Diego Charger Linebacker Steve Foley, who was shot three times, and finally Darrent Williams, shot in the neck once.

This may be saying something to people, such as the family and friends of these people, but why? Why did these people get shot. It seems like they are just pointless shootings, while Darrent Williams was the only one dead out of the three, he was the first active NFL player to die since Thomas Herrion, who died on the football field in 2005. While his team morned and wore a pin saying his number during the games, it still seems like this is a never ending thing, and will keep going on, but until the next shooting, it seems like all of the Professional Football players, are safe.
