This is good news. A 20 to 30 percent of walking again is better than none.

I saw that on the news while at lunch and hope he makes it back on his feet.

More good news on LeGrand:

This was such a scary hit and such an awful thing to see. I'm so glad he looks like he'll recover.

Re: Rutgers player paralyzed from hit

I wonder how much financial support he gets from Rutgers or college football.

Who knew that hard work had its rewards? Seriously though if that's not a true comeback story I don't know what is.

Re: Rutgers player paralyzed from hit

Awesome, it's always incredible to hear about people who come back from paralysis.

Kevin Evertt is fully recovered now, so hopefully this kid is on his way to that kind of miracle.
Former NFL player Kevin Everett talks about his recovery from paralysis | abc13.com



Remember Mike Utley? He still can't walk but he's working hard to make his life better and started a foundation to help players with spinal cord injuries.

Some, like Darryl Stingley aren't so lucky.
