Gado his shit together

Houston Texans backup running back Samkon Gado has missed offseason training sessions to study for the MCATs. The Liberty University graduate is scheduled to take them July 13th in Columbia, South Carolina. After his career he hopes to become an orthopedic surgeon. As admirable as this is, it's hard not be jealous of someone who can put "retired NFL player" on one line of his resume and "orthopedic surgeon" on the next. Former Olympic speed skating champion and current orthopedic surgeon Dr. Eric Heiden is the most well known athlete/surgeon, and NFL Hall of Famer Steve Young is a graduate of BYU Law School.
