One of the downsides of a sport that requires a huge amount of muscle is that you get used to a diet that supports it. When you retire, the drastic cuts in calorie intake required to stay healthy when you're not working out to exhaustion regularly can result in ulcers. Many can't make the transition, so blimp out big time.

Looking at pics from Mangold’s later playing days, he was already pretty “big”. Still, the transition can be difficult for some...
