The wife of former NFL journeyman Louis Leonard is giving fans a look at what life is actually like for some former players. "My husband survived the NFL, but now he's surviving everything it left behind," Lacey Leonard said via an Instagram Reel on Saturday, January 17. "People see the glory, the lights, the crowds, but they don't see this - the aftermath, the pain, the stiffness, the tremors, the battle his body fights every single day," she continued as the video showed her husband making his way through a hospital in a wheelchair. "Don't romanticize this life," she added.
