Travis Kelce Battled “Pretty Big Illness” Ahead of Super Bowl 2025, Says Kansas City Chiefs GM
Quinton Aaron is looking on the bright side.
The Blind Side star, who portrayed former NFL offensive lineman Michael Oher in the 2009 film that is now at the center of a lawsuit between its subjects, is currently in the hospital after being admitted Feb. 27 with a fever and a bloody cough. Still, he is focusing on the positive, telling TMZ in an interview published March 4, “I feel optimistic I’ll be back on my feet in no time.”
Since being hospitalized, the 40-year-old said he has undergone testing by the Southern California medical facility’s doctors and shared that he is likely experiencing Type A flu and pneumonia. In addition, he is experiencing a days-long migraine.
Aaron also explained that he has received a round of antibiotics and is thankfully not coughing up any more blood. He also expressed his hope that he’ll be able to leave the hospital soon after receiving a peripherally inserted central catheter, which, according to the Mayo Clinic, is used to administer antibiotics and medications into the bloodstream.
