Some sad news out of Florida today, as Gators offensive lineman Roderick Johnson's career has been cut short due to a congenital spinal condition. Johnson's issue was discovered after he suffered a stinger during an April 3 scrimmage. 

It's a devastating blow for the young lineman, but it seems he is handling the situation well. Johnson announced he's got a special tribute planned for honoring his final play as a Gator.
