Bills legend Jim Kelly reveals he suffered a stroke this spring, says he feels 'really good' now

Nick Lowery, former NFL kicker and member of the Kansas City Chiefs Hall of Fame, joins Fox Across America with Jimmy Failla to promote his new book, Naked and Alone with 80,000 People and explain how he earned the title of most accurate kicker in NFL history.

Former Buffalo Bills quarterback Jim Kelly revealed that he suffered a stroke this spring and had to spend a few days in the hospital, though he feels "really good" now.

Kelly spoke to reporters in Orchard Park, New York, during the ribbon-cutting ceremony of the new Highmark Stadium, where the Bills will play beginning this season. While the day was ceremonial as the Bills begin a new era in their new stadium, Kelly's announcement wasn't news anyone expected.

"I had a little setback about a month and a half ago," Kelly explained, via ESPN. "But right now, I feel good. Eyesight’s not great. My hearing still sucks, but that’s part of life."

The 66-year-old Pro Football Hall of Famer has dealt with health problems in the past, including multiple cancer diagnoses. His latest came in 2018 when he needed surgery to remove oral cancer and reconstruct his upper jaw. He also underwent chemotherapy in 2014 for cancer found in his maxillary sinus, and had an initial surgery in 2013 to remove squamous cell carcinoma from his upper jawbone.

Kelly said that his recent cancer screenings came back "all good."
