The Chiefs RB revealed that he’s been hospitalized because of PTSD symptoms more times than he can count and that for a while, he barely got more than three hours of sleep on average most nights.

"The only time that I would feel myself was when I was putting on the helmet," CEH said. He also made it clear that Chiefs head coach Andy Reid — as well as the KC medical staff — has been well aware of his condition for years and has worked with him a lot along the way.

While speaking with Clark and company, Edwards-Helaire recalled being handcuffed and held as a "full-blown criminal" at a nearby police station. "I’m in this room and I’m in there completely by myself — no clock, I don’t know what time it is," he remembered aloud. "And I feel like the thing that tripped me out the most is they had a window [in the room], and I tried to look out the window and when I opened it, it was a mirror. That right there completely broke me down."
