NFL Fans Worried About Troy Aikman's Appearance On Monday

Troy Aikman may no longer be the strapping young quarterback that led the Dallas Cowboys to three Super Bowls in the 90s, but fans were concerned about the 58-year-old's appearance during last night's "Monday Night Football" broadcast.
John Harbaugh and the Ravens were able to make pretty easy work of little brother Jim and the LA Chargers at SoFi. However, what seemed to catch viewers' attention was the Hall of Famer's eyes.
"I can't understand anything Troy Aikman is saying because I can't stop staring at his eyelids, which appear to be bleeding," sports business analyst Cork Gaines shared to X.

Others felt similarly.
"Said same thing to my parents when watching," a user replied. "My [dad's] an eye doctor haha."
"I think I saw blood as well. Hope he's ok," another said.
"Probably some kind of cosmetic procedure to lift his lids. Guy clearly gets a lot of Botox, etc," a fan commented.
"Anybody else notice the bruising on Troy Aikman's eyes and eyelids?" another person asked.
"What's going on with Troy Aikman's eyelids?"
This isn't the first time people have worried about Aikman's on-air looks. However, it's worth noting that the Cowboys legend has underwent LASIK eye surgery in the past and has struggled with dryness and redness in the years that followed.
Hopefully Monday night was just a continued symptom and not something that he or his fans should be too worried about.
