Justyn Ross: The human highlight reel

Justyn Ross thrilled the country with his unbelievable catches in the 2018 College Football Playoff, and admiration for his abilities grew after Ross showed out in the win over Alabama. His high school coach has seen it all before.

Ross had surgery last week to repair a congenital fusion (two fused vertebrae appear structurally and functionally as one). The rising junior will miss the 2020 football season as he recovers from the surgery, and there is no guarantee that he will play football again.

His former head coach at Phenix City (AL) Central, Jamey DuBose, told TigerNet earlier this week that he thinks Ross will come back better than ever.
