The former Florida State safety learned Friday that he has been accepted for a neurosurgery residency at Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts General Hospital, the next step on a path he had planned out even before stepping away from the NFL to enter med school.
Rolle has long been on a different program than his football-playing peers. He earned a Rhodes scholarship while at FSU and deferred his NFL career for a year while earning a Master's in medical anthropology at Oxford University.
"Seven years of neurosurgery is a big deal, something I wanted for a long time, really excited about it. Today is just great, it's remarkable," Rolle told WCTV in Tallahassee on Friday. "… Saving lives and helping people live a better life, that's going to make life worth living."
