MIAMI (CBSMiami) – Life has become a struggle for several former NFL players as the past-day gladiators are suffering through the deterioration of body and mind.
Earlier this week, former Miami Dolphins linebacker and Pro Football Hall of Famers Nick Buoniconti was highlighted in an article by Sports Illustrated.
Buoniconti’s family wants to get the word out regarding the long-term effects of what playing in the NFL can do to a person both mentally and physically.
On Wednesday, another article was released by Sports Illustrated focusing on a former Dolphins great who is dealing with the same issues.
