Art Schlichter

Art Schlichter is a former NFL quarterback, famously drafted fourth overall by the Baltimore Colts in 1982. His promising career was overshadowed by a severe gambling addiction that led to numerous legal troubles, including a ten-year prison sentence for theft and public indecency. Schlichter's struggles with gambling began during his college years at Ohio State, where he became a notable football player. In recent news, he expressed concerns that the recent arrests of NBA players Chauncey Billups, Terry Rozier, and Damon Jones could indicate a larger issue of sports gambling among athletes, suggesting that many players may face similar challenges.
