A video of Aldon Smith was posted just days before his death, and it featured the late former NFL player stating how he had better days in his life and was currently struggling right now.

In that same video, which was shared again, Smith was seen answering a question about how he was feeling that day during a podcast. He reiterated again how he'd definitely had better days. Sadly, the athlete passed away last Saturday at the age of 36.

While Smith then said he did not feel like elaborating on the specifics of his situation, he did mention how it was something that he had been dealing with for a while now. "It's along the lines of something that I think I've been dealing with my whole life, and I am just struggling with accepting how it's playing out right now- he continued.
