In an interview with Cleveland Magazine, former Cleveland Browns legend Bernie Kosar it was revealed that he needs a liver transplant. He also revealed he is in the middle early stages of Parkinson’s Disease. Kosar, who is 60, was diagnosed back in February of this year while also being told he would need the transplant.
“My body gave out on me. I really felt like I wasn’t going to make it home from the Jets game. I sucked it up, though, and continued to avoid the doctors until the new year. Then I went into the hospital and got a massive blood transfusion. It was like: ‘How are you alive? How are you moving? Because your hemoglobin levels are so low.’’
Kosar was the last great Browns quarterback who performed consistently over time and is beloved by Browns fans, young and old. We will continue to follow this story as we wish all the best for the legend.
