After suffering a spinal injury in the 2017 season, doctors were afraid Ryan Shazier may never walk again. But Shazier vowed to one day play the game again. He's been documenting his rehab along the way. Here is his most recent achievement... box jumps.
Just a couple of months ago, Shaze was dead lifting...
In an interview with ESPN, Shazier's Father says this of his journey...
“He’s grinding every day. It’s been very intense. He’s come a long way but has a long ways to go. We’re grateful for the progress he’s achieved. He’s been dedicated to doing all he can to make as much progress as he can. We don’t have a ceiling, just working day to day.
As I told you last month, the Steelers are honoring Shazier's contract for the 2019 season.
