TAMPA, Fla. — When the days rehabbing his torn PCL became long or monotonous, or both, Braden Shewmake’s motivation was at home waiting for him when he finished.
“It was real tough,” he said. “But I had my wife and my son down here (in Florida) with me. Being able to go home to them and play with him was always the best part of my day, to be honest with you, and (I’d) get done here and be looking forward to getting home and hanging out with the kid and wife.”
On June 15 of last year, Braden’s wife, Emily, gave birth to their son, Micah.
