On top of grappling with the end of his marriage, Waller also has a lot on the line career-wise.

Earlier in the year, the athlete told members of the Giants organization that he was contemplating retirement. Despite the NFL draft being a week away, Waller has yet to decide.

“And it’s to the point where it’s like, man, I don’t feel like I’ve really done a lot. In some ways, my life hasn’t really started.”
