Damn, young enough to still be in the league. Shithead Lions front-office pestering Rogers to pay back his bonus money prolly didn't help.

7:21 AM PT -- New info in the death of Charles Rogers -- we're told the ex-NFL player had suffered a medical issue recently and was being treated at a medical facility last week.

Still not clear on the details surrounding Rogers' condition but we're told Charles' mother was helping out with his care.

One person close to Rogers tells us they had spoken with him as recently as this weekend and told us they believed Rogers was "in good spirits."

After his football career ended, Rogers admitted he had struggled with substance abuse -- including an addiction to Vicodin. He had been arrested multiple times for alcohol-related issues.

Rogers -- who reportedly signed a $40 mil rookie contract with the Lions -- is survived by 8 children.

Holy shit this guy really couldn't catch a break. Two years ago the NFL.com website was listing him as deceased:

Also, looks like the painkillers got him:

I watched him play high school basketball for a Saginaw team that boasted five division one college players, I think four basketball and Rogers at MSU. He seemed like a can't-miss with the Lions, just a sad story all around.

ESPN said this morning that he also had cancer in addition to his other issues
