WESTFIELD — Nick Hardwick is most-known for his decade-long career captaining the San Diego Chargers' offensive line. However, he believes he did not find peace within himself until after his retirement.

"There's always something to improve on," Hardwick told the crowd."Every single day there's something to improve on in your life. Until the day that I die, I better be working on something.""Two months after I left the game, I was suicidal," Hardwick said."I lost my identity, my passion, my community, my team and my goals."

"The biggest thing that we can all do is just be there for one another for when the adverse times come, because no one is immune to adverse times," Hardwick said.
