Cameron Clark Retiring Due To Health Concerns
3 years agoNew York Jets offensive lineman Cameron Clark (neck), who missed all of last season after suffering a spinal-cord injury in training camp, is retiring, according to his agent, Alan Herman. "Based on the advice of Dr. Andrew Hecht, a prominent orthopedic surgeon at Mt. Sinai Hospital in New York, Cameron will not be able to continue to play football for the New York Jets," Herman said. The 24-year-old was told that he would be risking paralysis if he continued to play. Clark was a fourth-round pick by the Jets in 2020 and was injured on Aug. 3 and laid motionless on the ground before being taken to a local hospital. His career will end without him ever taking a snap in a regular season game.
