Concussions,that`s why he retired.Superb linebacker,one of the best, when he played.He wanted to be able to remember his kids names when and IF he reached 50.Great decision on his part!
In no way is this a tragedy. Kuechely had a fantastic college career, and then played eight outstanding seasons in the NFL. By the way, eight years is a long NFL career. He made the smart decision to end his career while he was still “healthy”. Hat tip to this man.
Dude was smart as much as I miss seeing him play I’m happy he did what he wanted to do him,Patrick Willis and cam chancellor they all went out young but they all made a impact
He simply got out before his brain was damaged. Nothing tragic. He is a hall of fame player for sure. We see more of this now. Guys do not just keep playing until they cannot any longer. Center Travis Frederick retired early also.
The Guy was seriously underrated to the point of it becoming criminal. He was probably the smartest D man after Ray Lewis. You could out physique him but not Out Prepare him. I hope he begins coaching soon, i can see him becoming an awesome Defensive Shot Caller.
Sean Lee and Leighton Vander Esch of the Cowboys come to mind also. Lee kept getting injured and Vander Esch could never get over his bad neck. Some players just have an instinct, but Keuchly was right to quit. Only time will tell how much damage he took.
I am so glad this young man retired.. I would rather have his brain and not a memory of it. He is still the smartest to ever play the game at that postion.We will not see another Luke for 20 years
He was Peyton Manning(brains), and Ray Lewis(brawn) all in one! When he fell to Panthers, I was tickled! When the offense AND defense clicked in 2015, I thought sure we'd hoist the Lombardy...
Congrats..it gets easier. I begged on my knees to take the pull/need of alcohol away to GOD. He answered, if I were to go back to drinking it would be like spitting in his face. I try to remember that. At 15.5 years sober, it's just habit, people, places, & things. Those are the triggers to stay 100% clear of.

Smart man, smart player nothing but Respect man !
Based on his production in the 8 years he played in the league, Luke Kuechly should be in the Hall Of Fame period.
TRUTH
He was an absolute BEAST!! The complete package & elite in every aspect.

He didn't disappear, he retired. He's smart to do so while he still was relatively healthy.
Wow, I just wrote that same thing without even looking at any comments 😱
He didn’t disappear he retired due to concussions
The author uses disappear to draw more views.
Great video. Luke is a very thoughtful young man. He is a big part of our community around Charlotte.
Literal living Legend
Shoutout to you for saying my name correctly I rarely get that pleasure that was dope
I can’t believe he retired so long ago. It seems like yesterday.
He choose his brain over more games. Made plenty of money.

Horse end headline...Wise man walks away...
Smartest decision he has ever made. 👍
he got filthy rich playing football and quit before his brain was cottage cheese...
Smart man.

He's tough doesn't mean he's not smart, he knew Tepper is different than Jerry Richardson, he reads well.
I miss watching this guy play 😢Dude was a PROBLEM.
Luke was no joke
great video about an amazing player and person
I live 30 minutes away from evendale
Disrespectful title for the video, dude had concussions
No he didn't. He had to retire from injuries...and yea..he was dope
Butkus played 14 game seasons
He was Peyton Manning(brains), and Ray Lewis(brawn) all in one! When he fell to Panthers, I was tickled! When the offense AND defense clicked in 2015, I thought sure we'd hoist the Lombardy...
I feel you brother
Packers fan here, I wish they would have man, they were stacked in 2015
Tau needs to pay attention to Luke.
He needs to give Tua a call. It just ain't worth it.
He was a millionaire and wanted to live until 75.
And, today I found the single-digit IQ corridor of the internet.
The title says "what happened to" it says nothing about "tragic" or "dissappearing"!! 😅
He Retired
Not that tragic when you end up worth over $25 million.
I get the tackles part, but why doesn't he have more interceptions? If its a passing league why similar interceptions as Butkus ?
nice clickbait title. he did not disappear, he retired.
And he wasn't close to being the best linebacker
@@23cassanova the adults are talking…
only official jersey I own
Respect 🫡
How to contact you brother?
“Fans around the world were stunned.?
Kuechly deserved his ring.
Stud.
'first team all american pro'..
"Fans around the world...".
I love the NFL and Luke Kuechly but nobody outside the US has ever heard of Luke....
From NZ, I thought he was fantastic
Don't throw the word "great "out alot, but Luke was a Great LB.,
Disappeared?? He retired.
Concussions
See you in canton
Sam Huff NY Giants!
He quit before ruining his life, smart! What's so "tragic" about that"?
This is a very insulting poor taste video. There's nothing tragic about making your health & family a priority.
The music junked another video 👎👎👎👎💩💩👍
He was brittle. Injury prone.
Sensible decision best wishes for the rest of your career path. 👍👍👍
