In 2021, the former SNL cast member went back to the hospital where he was treated after his crash. As a rep for the center told Page Six, “Tracy became emotional and started crying. He was very thankful to all the nurses and doctors who helped him recover.”
Tracy himself told People that year, "I got to the bed that I recovered in and I just dropped to my knees and started crying because everything came before my face: Jimmy Mack [McNair], the truck, my friends that were in the car with me … all of that stuff came right before me."

The silver lining to the trauma Tracy went through is that he has said he feels like “a better man” after the accident, adding he came to realize that life is “bigger than me,” per ET Online.
The star has also recovered enough to continue working, although, in December of 2022, Tracy admitted to also struggling with alcoholism per VIBE. The star has been working to maintain his sobriety for 25 years, and noted, “You know what I do. I say I’m an alcoholic and the minute I can’t say that I’m doomed.”
