Description
Under Pressure: A Footballer's Fight for Survival Ray Lucas shares his harrowing story of perseverance and recovery in this unflinching look at the pressures faced by professional footballers. Despite overcoming doubts about his size and skills, Lucas went on to play seven seasons in the NFL before a neck injury cut short his career. The toll of painkillers and the stigma surrounding mental health issues are just two of the challenges Lucas faced as he struggled to come to terms with his new reality. In this candid memoir, he reveals how he overcame addiction and turned his life around, offering a powerful insight into the world of professional sports. With honesty and vulnerability, Lucas sheds light on the darker side of football, where players are often seen as toughened individuals who can 'take it'. This is a story of survival, resilience, and the human cost of a high-pressure sport.
