Defining Moments: Former Super Bowl hero on struggle with alcohol addiction
Fox News
Football player David Tyree describes his struggles with alcohol and drugs during his NFL career.
"Most people would like to think that money would solve all your problems, and I found that the money only multiplied the evils that were in my life," said Tyree, best known for his memorable Super Bowl XLII catch that propelled the New York Giants to an upset victory over New England. He said money gave him access to everything he "craved," from alcohol to marijuana to women. "Maybe in times past I didn't have marijuana and now I'm able to buy all the marijuana that I wanted," he said. "I was one person in public and a totally different person in private."More Related News
