Pat Tillman (via wikipedia and sports illustrated)

Pat Tillman was among the best NFL players during his time with the Arizona Cardinals. He has been one of the most beloved people in the world since he left the league to join the army, and he was even more revered when he lost his life in combat.

The Arizona Cardinals drafted the former defensive stalwart with their 226th overall pick in the seventh round of the 1998 NFL Draft. While he may not have been a high draft pick, he played four seasons in the league, which wasn’t due to poor play.

After playing four seasons in the NFL, Tillman left ahead of the 2002 season to join the army. Not only did he leave to fight for his country, but he would ultimately lose his life during combat in Afghanistan. Or so most NFL think.

One Facebook user, Tyler Hansen, is adding some drama to the mix and suggesting that it all may have been staged. He further backed up his claims by showing off someone who looks suspiciously like the former NFL defender.

And a second video…

Did Pat Tillman Fake His Death?

Hansen used side-by-side photos of Pat Tillman and Josh Bridges to suggest that the two may be the same person. But he didn’t just use pictures; he also showed videos of the two making nearly the same celebration motions.

He also noted that the pair have some insane similarities regarding their looks and fashion choices. Namely, they chose to sport the iconic mustache and wear backward-facing hats that looked oddly similar.

He also noted that their significant others looked insanely similar before pulling up screenshots of his DMs with Bridges. In the DMs, he messages Bridges, “I know who you are,” which is hearted by the Tillman look-alike.

After all is said and done, there is no way to confirm that Josh Bridges is Pat Tillman, but until it is proven otherwise, the fact remains that Tillman and Bridges are different people. And Tillman died honorably in combat overseas.
