New York Giant linebacker Steve DeOssie was arrested on drug charges this week in Dallas, and on Thursday he said he has an alcohol problem. “I feel like I’m on the first step to recovery. I need a complete change of lifestyle or I’ll end up dead before my lifetime,” DeOssie said. “Right now, it’s hard for me to see any light at the end of the tunnel.”
Police at Dallas-Ft. Worth International Airport arrested DeOssie, 28, on Monday on a charge of possession of drug paraphernalia, an airport spokesman said.
