Former Dolphins running back Isaiah Pead will not play football again after a serious car accident, but his spirit was on the field this past weekend.
Running back Tion Green wore Pead’s No. 23 and a jersey with PEAD on the back in the University of Cincinnati’s 40-37 overtime loss to Tulsa. Pead is a former Bearcats standout who rushed for 3,288 yards and 27 touchdowns in his career.
Green, who carried 14 times for 67 yards in the game, said he received permission from Pead to wear the jersey.
