I'm not speaking as an expert by any means but I have worked in a psych hospital for 7 years and the people making light of his mental illness have no idea what he might be dealing with and in general making fun of someone with mental health issues is pretty low rent. Some people can get back to baseline when they are doing what they know and what they excel at, in this case it is football for Richie. He gets a sense of purpose out of this and clearly when he is not around the game he struggles. I truly wish him the best, and I have seen people genuinely get better where I work, so there is definitely hope for Richie in the future after football. I am not trying to sound preachy by any means, I have just seen how mental health issues can ravage someones life and the life of their family, and I think people should have more compassion for individuals who struggle with mental health.
