(AP via SCRIPPS NEWS GROUP) – Roger Craig revealed during his induction speech into the Pro Football Hall of Fame that he has vascular dementia. Nearly eight minutes into a nine-minute speech, Craig announced his diagnosis, saying his doctors believe “it may be related, at least in part, to the concussions” he experienced during his playing career. “When I learned that Bill Walsh wanted me, that meant something because he saw something in me that others didn’t,” Craig said. Craig was selected from the seniors category and entered the Pro Football Hall of Fame Class of 2026 with Drew Brees, Larry Fitzgerald, Luke Kuechly and Adam Vinatieri.
