Family Of Dolphins Legend Nick Buoniconti Sheds Light On His Debilitating Disorder

MIAMI (CBSMiami) – Miami Dolphins fans remember Nick Buoniconti as the hard hitting Hall of Famer who helped the Dolphins win two Super Bowls, and record the only perfect season in NFL history.

But video, provided by his family to Sports Illustrated, shows Buoniconti in a tragically different light.

Buoniconti, now 76 years old, struggles to even put on a T-shirt. His family says his decline began four years ago. Now, they say, he loses his memory and his balance.
