Chris Henry's fiancée, Loleini Tonga, has shared her version of what happened the day he died with ESPN.

Tonga says Henry jumped out of the back of her pickup truck, instead of falling out.

Henry died of massive head injuries.

Tonga believes Henry thought he would land safely and that he didn't jump to intentionally hurt himself.

"I wasn't going fast, maybe he was scared because he saw someone calling the police, that was behind us,” she said. “I have no idea what was going through his mind. But as far as him wanting to end his life, no, he had so much going for him."

Police called the argument a domestic dispute and are still investigating the traffic accident.

No charges have been filed in the case.
