Our crew on @ESPNRadio had the @CanesFootball team several times LY. The tragic wreck from TWO YEARS AGO was mentioned on the broadcasts. We knew about it. Every NFL team knew about it - hell it came up w/ every scout I talked to. This is a planted story to drop Bain’s stock.
By no means am I diminishing the severity of the terrible tragedy, but the wording here reads as if this is recent news to NFL teams. It’s not. This has been known and vetted for several months.
So let me get this straight... "Ollie Connolly" comes out with a hit piece on his Substack against an athlete whose name he can't even be bothered to even spell correctly -- ELEVEN DAYS before the biggest day of said athlete's life, based off a crash report stating that the athlete was going BELOW the speed limit (55 in a 60) at the time of the crash, and the police didn't suspect said athlete of being under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Subsequently, the reckless driving charges were dropped and the family of the victim told "Ollie" that they wished Rueben Bain Jr well and didn't want any further attention brought to what they called a "tragic accident". All of which Mr. Connolly conveniently leaves out of his clickbait post on X. Absolutely disgusting behavior by a so-called journalist.
Teams have been aware of this case for a long, long time, and there was a lawsuit associated with the case that was settled in Miami.

News: Reuben Bain was cited for careless driving after a March 2024 crash in Miami that left a passenger in a coma. That passenger, a 22-year-old student, died three months later. NFL teams are aware and investigating, per sources.

WHOA! Big news regarding Miami edge rusher Rueben Bain Jr. Could it cause Bain to drop to the Bucs at No. 15?

And just like that, Rice hits a leadoff HR...
