He's grown, but it's pretty clear that he's not an adult. Regardless of the root cause(s) of his difficulties, Von has shown that he's not at all equipped to make good decisions. His situation got critical quickly and publicly. Now his career is very much at stake, and if his career disappears, it's not much of a stretch of the imagination to think that his entire life could spiral out of anything resembling control, if it hasn't already. His employer is being patient and generous. Of course, they're hoping that their generosity pays dividends later. His family cares, and I hope for his sake that they are motivated by a genuine, caring love. Football aside, this is just a young man in crisis. At this stage, it's time to try everything and hope that something works.
