I feel for the kid. Uber talented, derailed by injury. It totally sucks.

But he was studying to be a doctor. That path is obviously still open for him. Which is not a bad "second life choice" to have available.

Best of luck to the kid.

Not always. For every Bryce, there's some kid who went pro early, got drafted 6th round or is now bagging groceries, and might have been drafted much higher and been set for life on rookie deal. There are obviously cases for higher-end prospects where going pro early makes sense, but lots of cases where it is horrible decision. Injury can ultimately strike anyone. You feel bad for the guy, but not everyone is cut out for the NFL, and was right move for the team. Like you said, best of luck to him.
