Washington safety Su'a Cravens told reporters Saturday that while he's stepped away from football in 2017, he has his sights set on returning to the gridiron next season.
"I would just say God has a plan for everybody and right now he's putting me through something he knows I can handle," Cravens said, per ESPN.com's John Keim. "It will make me stronger. Hopefully, around this time next year I'll be back on that field."
On Sept. 3, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Cravens informed several Washington players he planned to retire, but that a meeting with members of the front office changed his mind.
