Football: Tide receiver's career likely is over

Tuscaloosa,Ala.--- Alabama receiver Tyrone Prothro was placed on medical scholarship, probably ending his career nearly two years after breaking his left leg. The school said Prothro has had three surgeries, the latest in March, since trying to make a leaping grab in the end zone midway through the fourth quarter of a 31 -3 win over Florida on Oct. 1, 2005. He was among the SEC's top receivers and caught five passes for 134 yards and two touchdowns (one for 87 yards) against the Gators.
