Darren Waller's overdose in a Walmart parking lot was the turning point that saved his life
From overdoses to NFL stardom: Darren Waller's comeback story is jaw-dropping Getty Images Before he was making headlines as the Dolphins' latest star signing, Darren Waller nearly lost everything: his career, his purpose, and his life. In 2017, the NFL tight end overdosed on fentanyl-laced pills in a Walmart parking lot. No one knew it then, but that terrifying moment would end up saving him. Today, Waller isn't just clean, he's a walking testimony that even from your darkest place, you can fight your way back. Darren Waller's NFL dreams were already unraveling when the league called his name Most players cry tears of joy on draft day. Darren Waller was panicking. When the Baltimore Ravens selected him in 2015, all he could think was, 'They're gonna find out I'm a f cking addict.' Waller had already spent years drowning in substances, starting with pills in high school, moving on to cocaine, molly, ecstasy, Xanax, weed, and alcohol. He wasn't partying. He was escaping. Escaping pressure, anxiety, and a life that didn't feel like his. And even as an NFL player, the drug use didn't stop. In 2016, Waller was suspended for violating the league's substance abuse policy. Again in 2017. His football career was crumbling, but that wasn't even rock bottom yet. The overdose that almost killed him was the moment that changed his life August 2017. Waller sat alone in a Walmart parking lot and swallowed some pills. What he didn't know? They were laced with fentanyl. He passed out cold in his car. No teammates, no friends, no cameras. Just Darren Waller and a near-death experience. He woke up hours later, soaked in sweat, still in that parking lot. It was a quiet, terrifying moment and it forced him to face the truth: this could've been the end. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Вот что поза во сне говорит о вашем характере! Удивительные Новости Undo Instead, it was the beginning. Darren Waller's overdose in a Walmart parking lot was the turning point that saved his life After the overdose, Waller checked himself into a 30-day rehab program in Maine. He detoxed, meditated, journaled, and finally began to deal with the pain he'd been burying for years. When he left rehab, he didn't go straight back to the NFL, he started working at a Sprouts grocery store, stocking shelves. That year away from football was humbling, and healing. And it worked. In 2018, Waller got another shot. The Raiders picked him up. By 2019, he exploded, posting back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons and earning his first Pro Bowl. Just two years after nearly dying, he was one of the best tight ends in the league. Now 7+ years sober, Darren Waller is using his platform to help others survive addiction Waller isn't just staying clean, he's making a difference. He launched the Darren Waller Foundation, focused on preventing youth addiction and helping people find treatment and support. Since joining the Dolphins in 2025, he's expanded his work to Miami, partnering with clinics and hosting mental health sessions for at-risk communities. 'Recovery isn't just about not using,' Waller said in an interview. ' It's about becoming who you were meant to be.' He's stayed sober since that overdose in 2017, over seven years and counting. No drugs. No alcohol. Just growth. Darren Waller's story isn't just about football. It's about getting a second chance and doing something meaningful with it. He didn't just survive, he turned his survival into purpose. And now, whether he's scoring touchdowns or saving lives, Waller's making every second count.

Judge cash-at-home row: VP Jagdeep Dhankhar says Centre 'handicapped' to act; refers to Ides of March
VP Jagdeep Dhankhar (File Image) NEW DELHI: Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar reiterated Justice Yashwant Varma's case and said that the government was handicapped due to a three-decade-old judicial order that prevented it from registering a First Information Report (FIR) without prior permission from the judiciary. Dhankhar, who is on a two-day visit to Kerala, has interacted with students and faculty at the National University of Advanced Legal Studies (NUALS), Kochi. Calling the Yashwant Varma cash-at-home case 'ghastly crime,' Dhankhar referring to the large stash of cash recovered from a judge's official residence, he questioned, 'Is this money tainted? What is its source? How did it land in a judge's quarters? Who does it actually belong to?' He stressed that several legal provisions appear to have been violated and expressed hope that an FIR would be filed promptly. Referring to Ides of March film, the Vice President said that the judiciary had 'Ides of March' on the night intervening 14th and 15th March: a terrible time! "Cash in large amount was found the official residence of a judge of the High Court. Now, if that cash was found, the system should have moved immediately and the first process would have been to deal with it as a criminal act, find out those who are culpable and bring them to justice. But so far, there has been no FIR," Dhankhar said. "The government at the central level is handicapped because an FIR cannot be registered in view of a judgment of the Supreme Court rendered in early 90s. I'm all for independence of Judiciary. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Show Off Your Talent: Enter the Ultimate Creator Contest! Tocsin Media & Marketing LLC Undo I'm a strong votary of protecting judges. We must protect our Judges from frivolous litigation. But when something like this happens, it is worrisome," he added. Earlier, on June 4, parliamentary affairs minister Kiren Rijiju said the government would bring out a resolution in Parliament in the monsoon session for impeachment motion against Justice Varma. Justice Varma was subject of a probe by a Supreme Court-appointed panel after a fire incident at his Delhi residence led to the discovery of several burnt sacks of cash at the outhouse.
