NFL standout may be forced to retire at just 26 years old

His career could be over.

Just four seasons into his NFL tenure, Houston Texans tight end C.J. Fiedorowicz's career may be coming to a close.

After suffering four concussions over the past two seasons, ESPN's Adam Schefter is reporting that Fiedorowicz may not be able to pass a team physical and that could end his career.

He signed a three-year, $21.5 million deal, but that number could be decreased to $2.5 million annually if he were to be cut by a pre-existing condition, such as a concussion, per the report.

Fiedorowicz is a former third-round pick from the 2014 NFL Draft. He's started 42 of 51 games over his career, with 89 receptions for 881 yards and six touchdowns.
