12-year NFL vet admits to playing ‘completely’ drunk multiple times

Football is a violent game and particularly at the highest level. Just count how many times you see players carted off the field during an NFL Sunday. Now, imagine taking an NFL field while completely drunk. Former San Diego Chargers cornerback Quentin Jammer claims he doesn’t have to imagine. Jammer, a 12-year NFL veteran, admitted on X Monday that he played “[expletive] faced drunk” in at least eight games back in 2011, when he was trying to cope with personal issues. At the time, Jammer had been going through a divorce and was “mentally shot,” he told the San Diego Union-Tribune back in 2012. “I would try to shake myself out of it, get the cobwebs out and just think,” Jammer added, per NFL.com. “But there were so many things to deal with, so much was going through my head. I couldn’t focus.”While it’s miraculous Jammer managed to play 15 games that season if he was indeed drunk for at least half of them, his performance dipped as he allowed 10 touchdowns and 10.5 yards per attempt. Jammer would only play two more years before calling it a career. This article originally appeared on For The Win: Ex-NFL CB Quentin Jammer admits to playing games ‘completely drunk’
