Pro Football Hall of Fame quarterback Jim Kelly revealed on Tuesday that he suffered a stroke this spring, which hospitalized him for a few days. Kelly provided details during a ribbon-cutting ceremony for the Buffalo Bills’ new stadium. “I had a little setback about a month and a half ago,” Kelly said. “But right now, I feel good. Eyesight’s not great. My hearing still sucks, but that’s part of life,” he added. Bills’ great Jim Kelly said he recently suffered a stroke, but he now feels “really good.” Story via @agetzenberg:https://t.co/VLUDOEzsdF — Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) June 23, 2026 ESPN shared further: Kelly, 66, has dealt with a variety of health issues over the years and has been diagnosed with cancer multiple times. He initially had surgery in 2013 to remove squamous cell carcinoma of the upper jawbone and underwent chemotherapy treatment in 2014 when cancer was found in his maxillary sinus. Kelly then had surgeries in 2018 to remove oral cancer and reconstruct his upper jaw. He said his recent scans have come back clean. “Everything’s good,” Kelly said. “All good.” The former quarterback played for the Bills from 1986 to 1996, appearing in four consecutive Super Bowls. He received the Jimmy V Award for Perseverance in 2018. “It’s going to be special, not only for the players, but imagine the fans in there, how crazy and wild and loud they’re going to get,” Kelly said, according to Fox News. “And that’s what I’m looking forward to. I want to see how loud this stadium can get. And from what I’ve been told, it’s going to be unbelievable, but I don’t expect anything less,” he added.

Unfortunately, all Bills fans remember how those ended – four straight defeats. Thus, the Bills still don’t have a Vince Lombardi Trophy in their team facility despite having made runs in recent seasons with Josh Allen now at the helm for Buffalo. The Bills made it as far as the AFC Championship Game twice since Allen was drafted in 2018, but they lost to the Kansas City Chiefs in both of those games. Kelly, who still lives in the Western New York area and is actively involved with the Bills, is looking forward to the team’s first home game in their new stadium. The Bills will host the Detroit Lions in their regular-season opener on Sept. 17, when he hopes the new Highmark Stadium sees a victory in its debut.
