Indianapolis, IN, October 23, 2026 —
Marshall Faulk, a Pro Football Hall of Famer and former Indianapolis Colts running back, has been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease. Faulk, 53, disclosed the diagnosis on the podcast The Caring Neurologist on Wednesday.
The information provided about the announcement does not include further details about Faulk’s health, when he received the diagnosis, or what led him to share it on the podcast. No statement from Faulk beyond the disclosure itself was provided, and no additional comment from a representative or medical professional was included.
Faulk’s diagnosis is the central news in the available account. It identifies him by his age and his connection to professional football, but does not describe his current activities, symptoms, treatment, or plans. Those details have not been provided and cannot be confirmed from the information available.
The account also does not specify the calendar date of the podcast episode, the circumstances of the conversation, or whether Faulk discussed the diagnosis further during the program. It therefore remains unclear what additional information, if any, was shared in the episode.
For now, the confirmed details are limited: Faulk is 53, is a Pro Football Hall of Famer and former Colts running back, and revealed that he has been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease on The Caring Neurologist on Wednesday. No further information about the diagnosis or its impact was provided.
