Former Miami defensive end, Rueben Bain, was involved in a fatal vehicular collision in 2024, according to a report by Ollie Connolly. One of the passengers, Destiny Betts, suffered serious injuries and died three months later. The police report found that Bain was negligent in his driving and cited for careless driving, but this charge was dismissed. All teams are aware of the incident and a civil lawsuit arising from the crash was settled. The report suggests that while some teams may be concerned about the impact of drafting players with past incidents, the bigger question is whether they will be susceptible to off-field incidents once they become NFL.
