Reggie Pearson Jr. has an inspiring story. If you don’t know all about it, Wisconsin wouldn’t medically clear Pearson to play after an MRI on his right shoulder revealed a medical condition. Wisconsin still hadn’t cleared him in the spring and he left the Badger program.
Fast forward to September 4th....he has been medically cleared by the Texas Tech Football Program and is suiting up in the locker room at NRG Stadium in Houston, proving a lot of doubters wrong.
Boy, did he ever prove them wrong.
All he did was go out and make his presence felt with eight tackles, a forced fumble, and an interception.
