Over the last 24 hours, I've heard all of the soundbites from Cris Carter's speech to the rookies at the symposium in 2014. I finally decided to watch the video, and I was not disappointed. Warren Sapp was arrested for soliciting prostitutes 8 months after this rookie symposium happened, which only adds to the effect of this amazing clip. And it's pretty amazing that the video above was featured on NFL.com until yesterday. This all stems from ESPN's article about 49ers rookie-turned-retiree Chris Borland's decision to preemptively retire to prevent further brain injury. If you haven't read it yet, it's definitely worth a read. For what it's worth, Borland's retirement might have more to do with the fact that he's the oldest looking 24 year old in the history of the world.
