In a post-game interview the previous year, he noted having constant pain in his elbow for several years prior.<a href="#cite_note-SI-Maule-40">[38]</a> He would spend most of the season sitting on the bench.

Unitas helped put together the Colts' only score, a touchdown late in the game. Unitas also drove the Colts into scoring position following the touchdown and successful onside kick, but head coach Don Shula eschewed a field goal attempt, which (if successful) would have cut the Jets' lead to 16–10. Despite not playing until late in the third quarter, he still finished the game with more passing yards than the team's starter, Earl Morrall. After an off-season of rehabilitation on his elbow, Unitas rebounded in 1969, passing for 2,342 yards and 12 touchdowns with 20 interceptions.

in <a href="/wiki/Timonium,_Maryland" title="Timonium, Maryland">Timonium, Maryland</a></figcaption></figure> On November 20, 1954, Unitas, at age 21, married his high school sweetheart Dorothy Hoelle. They lived in <a href="/wiki/Towson,_Maryland" title="Towson, Maryland">Towson, Maryland</a><a href="#cite_note-84">[82]</a> and had five children before divorcing. Unitas's second wife was Sandra Lemon, whom he married on June 26, 1972. They had three children, lived in <a href="/wiki/Baldwin,_Maryland" title="Baldwin, Maryland">Baldwin</a>,<a href="#cite_note-85">[83]</a> and remained married until his death. <a href="/wiki/Towson_University" title="Towson University">Towson University</a>, where Unitas was a major fund-raiser and which his children attended, named its football and lacrosse complex <a href="/wiki/Johnny_Unitas_Stadium" title="Johnny Unitas Stadium">Johnny Unitas Stadium</a> in recognition of both his football career and service to the university.<a href="#cite_note-86">[84]</a> Toward the end of his life, Unitas brought media attention to the many permanent physical disabilities that he and his fellow players suffered during their careers before heavy padding and other safety features became popular. Unitas had both knees replaced because of an injury in a 1963 Bears game. As the result of an injury to his right arm and elbow first suffered against the Dallas Cowboys in 1968, he eventually could not pick up a fork to feed himself with his right hand in later years. Also, his fingers had been repeatedly broken over the years, and he had no use of the middle three fingers on his right hand. He would slowly sign autographs with his thumb and little finger, and play golf by strapping his hand to the club with a <a href="/wiki/Velcro" title="Velcro">Velcro</a> strip. He could not perform any physical activity more strenuous that golf due to his artificial knees.<a href="#cite_note-:2-83">[81]</a><a href="#cite_note-87">[85]</a><a href="#cite_note-Nack-88">[86]</a><a href="#cite_note-:17-5">[4]</a> In 1997, a five-hour surgery on the arm was not successful. He sought league financed disability payments, but was refused because he was receiving a pension and had not sought disability by age 55, even though the severe hand problem did not arise until he was 60. Although his hand was virtually useless, the league also said he was not totally and permanently disabled.<a href="#cite_note-:2-83">[81]</a><a href="#cite_note-:17-5">[4]</a> Shorlty after his death, an opinion column noted that it was "a sad commentary on a league that Unitas helped bring into the television age. It was his mastery of the game that attracted countless numbers of fans to the sport and television."<a href="#cite_note-89">[87]</a> In 1991, Unitas and his wife filed for <a href="/wiki/Bankruptcy" title="Bankruptcy">bankruptcy</a> protection under <a href="/wiki/Chapter_11,_Title_11,_United_States_Code" title="Chapter 11, Title 11, United States Code">Chapter 11</a>.<a href="#cite_note-90">[88]</a> Their court filings showed that the couple owed creditors as much as $3.2 million but had assets of about $1.4 million.<a href="#cite_note-91">[89]</a> His financial problems arose in part from a business venture in which he and two partners took out loans to buy National Circuits Inc., a maker of printed circuit boards, and the firm subsequently failed.<a href="#cite_note-92">[90]</a> On September 11, 2002, Unitas died from a <a href="/wiki/Myocardial_infarction" title="Myocardial infarction">heart attack</a> while exercising at the <a href="/wiki/Kernan_Hospital" class="mw-redirect" title="Kernan Hospital">Kernan Physical Therapy Center</a> (now The University of Maryland Rehabilitation & Orthopaedic Institute) in Baltimore.
