On His Last Legs: Looking Back At Joe Theismann

All professional athletes suffer some sort of injury in their careers, may it be a minor sprain or a major bone fracture. Despite undergoing specialized sports performance training in places like Vernon Hills to further their skills and to lessen the risk of injuries, these athletes are still human and are always prone to get hurt due to the nature of their livelihood.

All professional athletes suffer some sort of injury in their careers, may it be a minor sprain or a major bone fracture. It comes with the territory, as their rigid daily schedules that revolve around team practices and professional games contribute a general wear-and-tear on their bodies. Despite undergoing specialized sports performance training in places like Vernon Hills to further their skills and to lessen the risk of injuries, these athletes are still human and are always prone to get hurt due to the nature of their livelihood. Unfortunately, there are times where injuries alter the lives of these extraordinary people, either by shortening their walks of life or worse, by ending their Cinderella run as professionals. With that said, let’s talk about an amazing athlete who played in the NFL. A player who played in an era known for its roughness and grit whose career was permanently derailed after suffering an injury that can only be described as gruesome. A quarterback who was forced to hang it up after suffering a compound fracture to his tibia and a shattered fibula in a game that everybody remembers more than a quarter of a century later. His name is Joe Theismann.
