Peyton Hillis, a former Cleveland Browns running back, has been hospitalized after rescuing his two children from drowning in the ocean, according to reports.
A man believed to be the NFL veteran’s uncle confirmed in a statement on Facebook that doctors told him his nephew’s health is “improving,” though he remains in intensive care due to “some problems with his kidneys and his lungs.”
“I just wanted to let everyone know on Razorback Nation that Peyton is doing better,” Greg Hillis wrote. “I’m sure he would want everyone to know that he appreciates all of the prayers being thrown up on his behalf!!!”…
