One of the best tight ends in college football is retiring from the sport because of multiple concussions.
Oklahoma TE Grant Calcaterra announced Thursday in a video posted on Twitter that he is leaving the sport of football. The junior hasn’t played since Oct. 5th against Kansas.
He said in the video that he has had his “fair share of concussions” during his career and has come to the decision after consulting multiple medical specialists.
"Football has been the biggest thrill of my life, and it kills me to know it's over," Calcaterra said on the video.
