New England Patriots' wide receiver left a quadriplegic from a hit in a preseason game against the Oakland Raiders on August 12, 1978. Raiders' safety Jack Tatum struck Stingley with a forearm as he crossed through the middle of the field. At the time, it was considered a legal hit. Darryl Stingley died of heart failure and pneumonia brought on by his condition. He is buried in Oakridge-Glen Oak Cemetery in Hillside, Illinois, a suburb of Chicago.
