Suicide. Second tragedy in recent years the Broncos have had to cope with.

Affirmative, Lastings...ESPN Radio reported the suicide as the result of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

Also mentioned on Jason Smith's national ESPN All Night radio show was the fact that McKinley was the top receiver in South Carolina Gamecocks history.

Just because you are a NFL player doesn't make you always so financially secure and things like that depending on what the contract. If you like football it is a dream job, nevertheless he died too young and that is not easy to recover from. Best of luck to the family and team.

I bet he loved sports and football. Regardless of the size of his contract, I still think he had life made. Getting paid to play a game would be pretty sweet.

No matter what problems he may have had, it's no excuse for killing himself. A pretty selfish and cowardly act!

You only hurt those that love you. I feel bad for his family!

I searched ebay for "Kenny McKinley Autograph" and get 64 auctions.

Then I searched just his name and get 384 auctions.....
