Jonathan Martin announced last month that he is retiring from football. The former NFL offensive lineman reportedly needed back surgery and may not have been able to play in 2015, but it sounds like that wasn’t the only reason he decided to hang up the spikes.
While much has been reported about Martin since the Miami Dolphins bullying scandal erupted two years ago, Martin has rarely offered information about his personal life. He changed that with a lengthy post on Facebook Wednesday that he also shared on Twitter.
The entire narrative is worth reading. Martin began by explaining how he moved to Los Angeles at age 10 and never fit in at the private school he attended.
