ESPN's Bruschi 'doing much better' after stroke

Former New England Patriots linebacker and current ESPN analyst Tedy Bruschi posted on Instagram Monday that he is "doing much better" after suffering a stroke last week.

In his post, Bruschi wrote that around 10:30 a.m. on July 4 he lost the use of his left arm and realized he was slurring his speech when he tried to speak. He wrote that his wife also noticed the left side of his face was drooping when he turned to her.

"We immediately knew what was happening. These are stroke warning signs. We called 911 and an ambulance got me to the hospital.
