An NFL Hall of Fame linebacker has been hospitalized with a stomach issue.
Lawrence Taylor, otherwise known as "LT," has been hospitalized with a stomach issue that doesn't appear to be life-threatening, according to reports.
In a statement released Monday, attorney Mark Eiglarsh said the longtime New York Giant authorized him to let the public know that the 67-year-old has been in the hospital for a week with no discharge date determined. Eiglarsh also said that Taylor remains under medical observation and is showing signs of improvement.
"Lawrence asks that I convey his sincere gratitude to everyone who has been thinking of him and keeping him in their prayers during this challenging time," Eiglarsh said.
Taylor spent his entire 13-year career with the New York Giants and helped them win two Super Bowl titles. He also earned All-Pro honors eight times and was the MVP in 1986.
Taylor was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1999 and had his jersey retired by the Giants.
