Tyler announced on social media today that he has decided to end his career with the Blue Raiders. Due to multiple concussions, Tyler has decided to walk away from the game.

Here's the statement he put out. Pure class:



"The last play that I will never remember. Concussions are a very serious deal that have been, in past years, swept under the rug. Having had multiple concussions, with the SUPPORT of medical doctors, family, friends, and outstanding COACHES, I have decided to end my Senior season early. I am extremely thankful for the MTSU athletic training staff, responsible teammates, and the best coaches in the country that care about their athlete's well-being. Middle Tennessee takes CARE of their athletes! ‪#‎TrueBlue‬"

Hate to hear it but totally respect it. Also glad to hear our coaches take it serious.

Good for Barron. No need to mess with long term health. Nice words about our staff/AD as well.
