Thank you for this wonderful recap of your son's career. Very sad his career

has ended with these injuries. We are mostly armchair QB guys here. You have lived it and I am grateful not only for your son's play and the difficult course he traveled, but in your willingness to share precious details. The best is ahead for you all. That's for sure.
