Former NFL and CFL player Craig Roh passed away at age 33 after an 18-month battle with Stage IV colon cancer.
Roh had a successful athletic career, highlighted by a Gatorade Player of the Year award in high school, starting all games as a freshman at Michigan, and winning a Grey Cup championship in the CFL.
After his playing career, Roh founded an online defensive line coaching business and started a family, keeping his cancer battle private.
He is survived by his wife Chelsea and their young son.
Craig’s wife posted, “Craig was not very public with his battle, as he truly just wanted to focus on bringing the best content and building the best products he could.”
Roh made the most of his talents on the field and in life, achieving at the highest levels of football before focusing on his business and family in his later years.
