Posted September 29, 20159 yr comment_157137 Just announced on TSN morning show..... retired due to medical issues at the recommendation of doctors. I guess he won't be the one to push Willy!
September 29, 20159 yr comment_157140 Good luck to him in his post-football career. Have to look out for your health when you can.
September 29, 20159 yr comment_157144 Too bad when your body forces you to retire before you want to. But that's life I guess. Good luck to him.
September 29, 20159 yr comment_157148 Good luck to him in his post-football career. Have to look out for your health when you can. Yes health #1 as well as good for him in recognizing the importance of knowing football isn't forever.
September 29, 20159 yr comment_157163 Even factoring in youthful enthusiasm, you have to question Marve's common sense in trying for a pro football career with knee problems as bad as his were and probably still still are. Personally, I would rather be able to walk around pain-free and be able to squat on a throne than risk fully destroying my knee(s) playing or trying to play for a minor league for peanuts.
September 29, 20159 yr comment_157167 Sad. Was it confirmed that the injury was related to previous knee operations?
September 29, 20159 yr comment_157171 It was somewhat inevitable and so many people called it when they first signed the guy. Hopefully in the future they will go after younger qbs who are healthy...
September 29, 20159 yr comment_157177 Amazing how fast he's gone from people around here talking about him being the future of the league, to being retired....unreal.

I assume it's pretty hard to give up on your dream.
September 29, 20159 yr comment_157179 Good for him... it must be hard for a 26 year old to admit that his body can't keep up with his dream...
September 29, 20159 yr comment_157204 Good luck to him. He's leaving us with a couple unforgettable highlights.

I would guess this job opportunity may have had a stronger affect on his decision than the injuries... either way, all the best to him...
September 29, 20159 yr comment_157277 Good luck to him. He's leaving us with a couple unforgettable highlights. When Brohm leaves there will be a few "forgettable" highlights
September 29, 20159 yr Author comment_157278 hey, if guys could catch with their ankles, Brohm would be on the highlight reel every week!
