Firstly, Mr. Fairly, no one will blame you for deciding your life is more important than a pro-career. God Luck and God Bless.

Secondly, how was this not caught in his college career or his previous NFL seasons?

Possibly an atrial septal defect or patent foramen ovale? If so, there's hope.

I am ashamed that my first thoughts were how this would affect our defense. I will keep Fairley in my prayers. Hopefully this is something treatable.Early detection is always helpful .

Obviously the most important thing here is his long term health.

But if he retired that leaves his guaranteed money on the books still?

Sounds like this might be over blown, lets hear what the docs have to say first, but apparently he has been playing with it forever.

Hope the docs and medical experts can get to the bottom of it and they can make the right decision.

It sounds like it is just precautionary testing. A full series of tests would take several days. Since it is a known. pre-existing condition I am sure he's been through this before.

WTF? We all hope this stuff isn't true. Why does it seem like it only happens to us? We're the Saints for Gods Sake. We should have Angels in the locker room or on our shoulder or you get the point!
