What's up Doc?
Ryan Tannehill's career is interesting enough if you only focused on his transition from playing wide receiver to, the most difficult position in all of sports, quarterback. But Tannehill did what so many refuse to do, consider what's next if Plan A doesn't work out. That's right. Tannehill did have a Plan B, and it wasn't "become a player's agent or coach."
He wanted to pursue becoming an orthopedic surgeon after studying biology at Texas A&M. Tannehill was intrigued by how the doctors treated his knee injury and decided that would be his fallback plan. But with NFL success, that pathway never came to fruition.
