DAVIE, Fla. -- Brandon Marshall made a juggling, one-handed catch during a drill, drawing a loud ovation from Miami Dolphins fans in nearby sun-baked stands. A few minutes later, another spectacular grab earned him a fist-bump from coach Tony Sparano and left Marshall clapping his hands.
He seemed incredibly happy.
Off the field, that isn't always the case.
â
Right now, today, I am vulnerable. I am making myself vulnerable.

-- Brandon Marshall
The Dolphins' wide receiver says he was diagnosed earlier this year with borderline personality disorder, which has been known to stem from things such as unstable personal relationships, a negative self-image and a fear of failure. He made the decision to go public with the issue to raise awareness, and says he plans to eventually lobby Congress for funding to assist research efforts.
