The Ravens offensive lineman John Urschel has abruptly announced his retirement from football at the age of 26 on Thursday. His decision comes two days after a medical study indicated that chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) was found in nearly 99 percent of deceased NFL players’ brains that were donated to scientific research, and it’s said his retirement is directly caused by the study’s results.
