Less than two years after an injury left him paralyzed from the waist down, Devon Gales is walking again. Gales, a receiver at Southern University, injured his neck while blocking on a kickoff return against Georgia in September 2015. He had surgery and has been rehabbing ever since, with the goal of walking again. On Thursday, he shared a clip of himself walking with some assistance.
