It was last June that he announced that he was taking a break from soccer to focus on his residency at McGill.

“I am proud to announce that I will be starting my medical residency at McGill University in July 2022. It has been four years since I received my MD and now it is time to get back into it (…) It has not been easy to turn down offers from NFL teams over the past few months and I am not closing the door on a return to the NFL. However, it was important for me to start my residency this summer with my cohort so I don’t fall behind (…),” he had added.
