Bending the elbow too much.

This is not something I usually see. In fact, it is usually the opposite.

Over-active right bicep muscle, not Releasing the Fourth Power Accumulator sufficiently, Off-Plane, fear of hurting the right elbow are places to begin...Is the player even capable of physicaly straightening it ?

Per 7-1, For the Swinger, CF Uncocks both the Left Wrist and Right Elbow; 7-19 and 7-20. So both must remain Passive, but never Whippy.

Yes sir! So how does one go about achieving Passive but never Whippy?

I agree.

Passive-acted upon by an external agency, receptive to outside influences, inactive, submissive, existing without being active.

Whippy-springy, resilient

Maybe I shouldn't be using these two words together in a golf forum.

Extensor action alone would straighten it.

Per the Magic of the Right Forearm and Tomasello's instruction per Homer Kelley.....For the Swinger, CF Uncocks both the Left Wrist and Right Elbow....yes, the golfer uses the right forearm to start the uncocking of the right elbow from the top (see 7-3 and 2-N-1 from the 7th edition)....CF Uncocks both the Left Wrist and Right Elbow.....at Release. There are the two words missing from 7-1....AT RELEASE.

First place I'd look is plane. If you can't straighten the right arm down and OUT, you are probably over plane through impact.

Split grip drills, no ball, just in the air, below horizontal, but not lowered all the way to a full swing.

Focus on first - not letting the clubhead get 'inside' the hands until hip high, and second, swinging OUT - from about 7 to 2 on a clock as your right arm straightens to 2 o'clock.

If that doesn't help you get a good feel for how the right arm needs the 'room' to straighten, next look to your pivot. You may not be turning through very well.

getting hotter...
Swing = Shoulder + Wrist throw , The shoulder throws both arms. Thus the elbow release by CF or CP. The muscle is "stretched"

Hit = Shoulder + forearm throw = 4 barrel Hit is available. Shoulder provide the platform to blast the right forearm. The tricep contracts. and there is relatively less stretch of the left side.

Ok... I think I am getting warmer !
