Michigan quarterback Jack Tuttle<\/a><\/strong> has retired from football, he announced via Instagram on Monday night. Tuttle played for three teams throughout his career, starting at Utah before transferring to Indiana, and then closing things out with the Wolverines.<\/p>\n

In his statement, Tuttle says injuries are a big reason why but a recent concussion ultimately led to his stepping away from the game. The quarterback wants to make his health a priority moving forward, something he cannot do while playing football.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe past year has been challenging, marked by a UCL repair in my throwing arm that I didn\u2019t fully recover from, which has caused ongoing issues,\u201d Tuttle said. \u201cAnd unfortunately, the recent experience of my fifth concussion has brought forth the painful truth: that I need to start prioritizing my health. Throughout my college career, I\u2019ve battled numerous injuries, culminating in this difficult choice to step away from playing the game that I love.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tuttle does not plan to completely walk away from football. Staying involved in the game seems to be his top priority, saying finding a coaching job is his next step.<\/p>\n

\u201cThough closing this chapter is unfortunate, my passion for football will always be a part of me,\u201d Tuttle said. \u201cI am committed to finding a different role in the game and plan to pursue a role in coaching.\u201d<\/p>\n
