(Sports Spectrum) Ten years ago, the Tennessee Titans used one of their sixth-round picks (No. 207 overall) in the 2010 NFL Draft on Myron Rolle, a standout defensive back from Florida State. He was a standout because of his football talent — third-team All-American in 2008 — but also because of his academics.
He later returned to Florida State to earn his medical degree, and went on to study neurosurgery at Harvard. Rolle is now a third-year neurosurgery resident at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. He’s one of the many medical workers on the front lines of the battle against COVID-19, and he recently detailed a day in his life with ESPN.
