Two former Chargers players open up about NFL and health

Former players around the NFL have opened up about their own history of injuries following the abrupt retirement of Andrew Luck, sometimes using their own stories to support his decision. Two of the players that have opened up recently: Former Chargers fullback LeRon McClain and guard/center Rich Ohrnberger.

Here is the tweet from McClain, which will be edited for appropriate content:

I have to get my head checked. Playing fullback since high school. It takes too much do do anything. My brain is tired. NFL, I need some help with this. Dark times and it’s showing.
