Steve Weatherford: Super Bowl XLVI ‘was one of most depressing nights of my life’

Winning isn’t always everything. Ask former New York Giants punter Steve Weatherford, who, in a post on social media, recently outlined his depression after perhaps the greatest night of his life.

The Giants had won Super Bowl XLVI, defeating the New England Patriots, 21-17, their second victory over Tom Brady and Bill Belichick in four years.

Weatherford punted four times in the game, averaging 40.8 per attempt with three of those punts landing inside the 20. None of his four punts were returned.

Despite the all-time performance, Weatherford couldn’t help but to feel depressed after the game.
