Muma hasn’t let diabetes keep him from pursuing NFL dream

FILE - Wyoming linebacker Chad Muma speaks during a press conference at the NFL football scouting combine in Indianapolis, Friday, March 4, 2022. Muma wears an insulin pump that's paired with a continuous blood glucose monitor when he's not on the field. He tests his blood sugars halfway through practices “and for games I test at each quarter and if I need insulin, I will actually give myself a shot during the game based on what my numbers are.”(AP Photo/AJ Mast, File)

The first thing former University of Wyoming star linebacker Chad Muma did when he was diagnosed with diabetes as a 13-year-old was search up “NFL players with diabetes.” A native of Lone Tree, Colorado, Muma was both relieved and delighted when the name of a Denver Broncos player popped up first.
