Detroit Lions Drops Message For Former NFL Star Barry Sanders After Health Scare
Sanders faced a heart-related health scare earlier this month. As seen by a tweet on the team’s official X account, the Lions sent a message to one of the best players to have ever played for the organization after learning about his experience.
The former NFL player claims that throughout the weekend of Father’s Day celebration this year, he experienced a medical emergency. Luckily, the legendary Lions player was taken to the hospital right away and given emergency care.
Hopefully, Sanders won’t have any difficulties and heal completely in due course. The former running back should, however, take his time and prioritize his health and wellness as soon as feasible.
