Former NFL RB Priest Holmes said he suffered multiple head-to-head shots during his playing days. Many of those hits left him dizzy and seeing different colors. ‘This color obviously isn’t going to be blue. It can be a color that can be orange. It can be red. The sky could turn green,’ Holmes said. ‘There’s even an episode where you see a clear light, like light at the end of the tunnel.’ The hundreds of body and head shots have affected his daily life. ‘The frontal headaches, the migraines. Laying in bed, it’s tough to get out mornings just because of the pain that is setting in with an arthritic condition, it’s things like that that you never would have really thought about,’ Holmes said.
