Georgia Tech running back Kaleb Edwards’ playing career has come to a premature conclusion. Edwards, who has played two seasons for the Yellow Jackets, announced on social media Monday that he had elected to medically retire.

“All good things must come to an end,” Edwards wrote from his Instagram account. “I have made the tough decision to medically retire from football.”

Bummer. You hate to see it end like that, but better to know when it's time than to be scarred for life.
