Former Buffalo Bills linebacker Darryl Talley reportedly told The Buffalo News that he suffers from depression and has contemplated suicide, what he considers as side effects from his NFL career.
Talley says he has bouts of memory loss and has trouble sleeping.
Talley says he is unable to estimate the number of concussions he sustained during his 14-year NFL career.
“Too many to count,” he said, noting there were at least 75 times he saw flashes of lights after being hit.
He also lives in constant pain as a result of 14 operations he had during his playing days to repair various injuries.
“I’m not convinced that I’m dead yet,” Talley said. “But the future doesn’t look bright.”
