Still dealing with the symptoms of a severe Grade 3 concussion, former Green Bay Packers wide receiver Adrian Coxson announced his retirement on Monday.
Aaron Wilson of the National Football Post reported the news and added what Coxson had to say about his decision:
I'm retiring because I'm still having symptoms and my health is more important to me than the game of football. ... It's been recommended to me by two neurologists and two doctors to retire from football. The next hit to my head could possibly kill me or be life damaging.
