Mine is Luke Kuechly. I firmly believe that he was in his prime when he retired. 28 years old and already out of the league. Could’ve easily had at minimum 4 more all-pro/pro bowl seasons and an additional 4 more of league play if he decided to keep going. I also think the ‘true’ downfall of the Panthers really started when he retired.
I guess CTE and other lingering mental/physical injuries are really something we should not take lightly.
