Former NFL running back Peyton Hillis remains in the hospital after saving his children from drowning in the ocean earlier this month. He was originally in the ICU and spent a week in critical condition, but has since been “on the road to recovery,” according to his girlfriend. He was taken off a ventilator last week, she shared.
As Hillis remains in the hospital, he got a visit from a Hall of Famer. Emmitt Smith posted a picture of him visiting with Hillis, allowing everyone to see Hillis for the first time since the incident.
