John Urschel was drafted in the 5th round by the Ravens and played for three years as a guard. He retired in 2017 to pursue a PHD at MIT. Talk about reverse CTE.

Good for him would be my comment. Made some money and got out.

That headline is goofy because it implies he was a CFL player but he is in fact a former NFL offensive lineman who is from Winnipeg. I don't think he ever played in the CFL.

That is pretty cool. Kudos to him.

say what y'all want, but that story of Rolle interviewing for the Rhodes Scholarship in the morning and then flying to play in a game at Maryland that afternoon is pretty impressive.
I'm sure he's pretty happy with the way his life worked out...wife is a pediatric dentist and I'm sure they live very comfortably.

I like hearing good stories about former players vs. hearing them getting arrested for domestic violence or some other kind of crime

John Frank was a pioneer. Super Bowl with the 49ers then became a doctor.

At least this guy did it. I remember when Robert Smith got a lot of hype for considering turning down the NFL to go to medical school but he never did. In fact he stuck around football as a commentator when his career ended

Talk about an over achiever!

Frank Ryan, who QBd the Browns to their last NFL title, also became a math professor

Never played in a game
John Urschel played in 40, started 13. Believe he retired on his own terms, might have been able to play more.
