Clipped from the Jim Wyatt article:
A psychologist was among those who met with Young at his Brentwood home on Monday,
and what she concluded and told team officials led to a bizarre, 24-hour period
that ended just after midnight Tuesday morning. Thats when Fisher met with Young
and police at Baptist Sports Park.
Felicia Young said her son has grown weary of all the negativity he faces as an
NFL star. On Monday, he indicated to those around him he didnt want to play
football any more.
Vince has gone through a whole lot as a young person, Felicia Young said. And
I think he has done pretty well up to this point. But it is hard, all he is going
through right now. Hes hurting inside and out.
But he will be fine if people are prayerful and help my baby boy out. He is a
young man. He just needs a lot of love and support.
The events of the last 48 hours, however, have clearly left a lasting mark on both
Young and the Titans.
On Sunday, before Young was injured against the Jaguars, he initially refused to
re-enter the game after throwing an interception and getting booed by fans. His
decision to ignore the teams request for him to have the MRI created even more
friction between the player and the team, and indications last night were the
Titans have turned the team over to back-up quarterback Kerry Collins.
Even when Young returns from his injury, he might not get his job back.
The Titans believe Youngs injury is one that will keep him out anywhere from 2-4
weeks.
Then theres the question about whether Young is interested in returning, something
he mentioned to those who were with him on Monday.
What would you think, if you were tired of being ridiculed and persecuted and
talked about and not being treated very well, what would you do? What kind of
decision would you make? Felicia Young asked. He may not want to deal with it
(all), but you have to get to that point before you make that decision first.
But were not talking about football right now. Were talking about what would
make him happy, and that is the most important thing.
You dont want people to be hurting like he is. But it is a growing-up process,
and he will eventually come out like gold no matter what. But Vince is going to be
OK. We are just going to try and give him some space.
