Former NFL quarterback Ryan Leaf came to the Optometry Practice of Dr. Alex Corbin Liu for his annual eye exam. Ryan has been a patient of the practice for the last four years and loves coming in to select new eyewear.
Ryan was a standout as a Washington State Cougar which led to him being a Heisman Trophy finalist in 1997. He was drafted behind Peyton Manning as the second overall pick in the 1998 NFL Draft by the San Diego Chargers. His NFL career never lived up to the hype and is considered by many to be one of the biggest draft busts in NFL history.
After his NFL career was over, Ryan lived battling addiction issues. Those days are behind him and he now serves as a program ambassador for Transcend Recovery Community. He is dedicated to helping others make a positive change. You can read more about Transcend Recovery Community by clicking on the link below.
