Hapless Bills Fan Posted February 5, 2018 Posted February 5, 2018 Cool update on Darryl Talley: now serving as an ambassador for "NFL Legends Community", trying to identify former NFL players who might be struggling and hook them up to find help. http://www.orlandosentinel.com/sports/george-diaz-en-fuego/os-sp-darryl-talley-super-bowl-20180204-story.html This makes me smile because it's exactly what I hoped for when Frank put together the "GoFundMe" for him (I contributed) after the Graham story broke - that Talley would get back on his feet and use that chance and that platform to try to "give back" to others. 2
John in Jax Posted February 5, 2018 Posted February 5, 2018 (edited) On my way out of the Jags-Bills game I passed by DT, as he was going the other way. ETA: He looked pretty ragged, but nobody's perfect! I didn't really focus on who he was with as I was mentally processing the facial recognition. Lol Edited February 5, 2018 by John in Jax 1

Is that it? That's all ya got? "He looked good" "He looked like he wanted to be out there hitting" "His wife is a babe" ? What? 1 1

Lurker Posted February 5, 2018 Posted February 5, 2018 My brother lives in the same neighborhood as DT in Orlando (Doctor Phillips) and has talked to him many times. Told me he saw Darryl again at the Pro Bowl and he didn't look well...
The BLUES Brothers Posted February 5, 2018 Posted February 5, 2018 I happily disagree - saw DT at the event for Bills Alumni prior to the Opener this year and he was in good spirits and we shot the breeze for a while - Great guy. Saw him again this season at the event that Andre Reed hosted prior to the Bills/Broncos game and got some signed memorabilia by DT, AR and Bruce Smith. I have about 100 photos from these events - I was like a kid in a candy shop. We are all getting/looking older but glad to say DT was great - personable and funny too.
Saxum Posted February 5, 2018 Posted February 5, 2018 Will ask Andre to bring DT to annual tailgate next year. He'd feel the love.

Hopefully he has good days and less good days, and if there's stuff that will help him like that "deep needle acupuncture" 'Zo was talking about, he gets it.
