Remember when Derek Stingley Jr was hospitalized for having a seizure after smoking synthetic marijuana the night before the first game vs Miss St in 2020?




I do not.

Jeremy Shockey was the original medical emergency tight end. Shockey was on too much alcohol and oxy.

Something that I don’t believe I’ve seen reported yet, but didn’t he have a seizure years ago when he was with us last?

Why do you believe it was really a "seizure"?


Because that’s what they are saying, and it fits all the facts.

Again, why do you NOT think it was a seizure?

The guy is a legit pilot flying helicopters and stunt planes. He was about to sail around the world solo, he bikes like 60 miles a day. You guys are nuts if you think he’s on drugs . No way in hell.

And if he's letting them report seizures. Would be pretty easy to figure out when he's flying a plane solo.

Seizures can come out of nowhere with no prior history.

It's hard to believe a cop can't tell the difference between someone that's messed up on drugs vs a person having a seizure.

Not having a seizure. He was disoriented having come out of one.

I'm not saying they are or aren't lying, but the people saying it's clearly bullshite have obviously never had seizures themselves or been around someone when they had one.

Jeremy Shockey
It was obvious what happened to him. He got plastered while partying at the Hard Rock Hotel pool in Las Vegas and drank himself right in to an ambulance.

So your reason for believing this is a lie is simply “because it was reported” ?


Can a seizure be confirmed after the fact? I’m not saying “something” isn’t wrong with him. However, athletes/organizations do have a history of misusing injury or medical terms to be vague (i.e. “soft tissue injury”).

Hey, this guy is from Southern California, so obviously he’s a medical professional, we should listen.


First off, I live in Southern California, I’m from New Orleans fyi.

Secondly, let’s hope the guy is ok all jokes aside.

It could be a seizure, it could be drugs, it could be alcohol. We don’t know because we weren’t there. Just remember, just because he has a clean record and plays for the Saints, doesn’t make him a saint. We all have our vices.

Hardly would call that running. Maybe a brisk jog at best. xD

Saints are working overtime to cover this up.

Both times I was completely disoriented after. Had friends not been around for both who knows where I would have been

I have no idea if Graham truly had a seizure or not but this statement above is 100% accurate & lines up with my personal dealings with seizures as well.

My wife’s has 2, 1 while walking around the block with my 7 year old son who had to run a block & 1/2 to get me because she kept talking nonsense & had no luck trying to get up & walk after falling down face first during the seizure. She was also very disoriented, for 30 mins give or take, after each episode.

Not sure if she could have “Jogged” away from the Po-Po afterwards however?
