New England Patriots linebacker Tedy Bruschi -- who once played for the University of Arizona -- is facing heart surgery, according to sources in Tucson and Boston.
The team isn't confirming this news yet, but KOLD News 13 has learned Bruschi went into a Boston hospital for tests. He is scheduled to have surgery to repair a hole in his heart by the end of the week. That's what may have caused the mild stroke he suffered last month.
The 31-year-old Bruschi was rushed to the hospital complaining of partial paralysis just two weeks after winning his 3rd Super Bowl ring.
Bruschi played football at Arizona from 1992 to 1995.
