Former Cleveland Browns quarterback Bernie Kosar made an incoherent, tearful appearance on a local Cleveland radio show this week.

Kosar slurred his way through the weekly guest spot on The Hooligans on ESPN 850. He bizarrely talked about "franks and beans," made a nonsensical joke about one of the hosts getting injured and cried when discussing his appearance on NFL Road Tested, a show on The Travel Channel. At the end of the segment, the hosts tried to get Kosar back on track by asking him about the Browns upcoming game with the Kansas City Chiefs.

The five-minute clip is a tough listen:

Kosar filed for bankruptcy in 2009 with debts up to $50 million. In his appearance in the ESPN documentary Broke, he spoke of being too generous with his money to family and friends. He told Dan Le Betard in 2009 that the money he leant to teammates, gave to family and donated to charity was in the eight figures. Each.

He has said he suffered multiple concussions during his NFL career.

The former quarterback has admitted to drinking and pain medication issues, but told Le Betard the only thing he's addicted to is football.
