Tom Brady cheers on Ryan Shazier amid impressive recovery

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady chimed in on social media to offer words encouragement for former Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker Ryan Shazier.

Shazier shared a video of him working on a box jump with a trainer. With the help of a spotter, Shazier managed to leap on top of the box, a significant achievement for a young man who lost his ability to walk on December 5 when he suffered a spinal injury.

Brady shared the video on Twitter with a response: “#KeepGoing.”

Shazier has taught himself how to walk again, while apparently working on additional physical movements. His progress is an inspiration.
