College football players are admired and worshiped for what they do on the field. Every so often, these same players need to be commended for what they do inside the classroom. Most of these players won’t crack an NFL roster, so having that college degree will help them later down the line.
Congratulations to the players who made this list and showing the focus it takes to play college football and to maintain their studies.
