Somewhat OT . . . Does anyone know how it is decided that one's football "career" is over? Per the "ultimate source" Wikipedia, Keenan Reynolds hasn't played since the XFL collapsed in the spring of 2020 due to COVID. No doubt he'd like to continue playing -- I would venture that almost everyone who's played pro football would love to be able to play again (even when they're 50 years old). But, right now, it doesn't appear he's playing anywhere. Does he say, "hey, my football career is now over and I'm ready to commence my payback?" Or does the USN / USMC say that, if a certain amount of time goes by without active playing, the career is considered over? Does anyone know of any SA grad in the last 20 years who was allowed to play pro sports who then served on AD? Just curious.
