Casey Rogers is taking a left turn in his professional life.
He's still going to be a pro athlete, though.
Rogers is a 6-foot-5 big dude who spent the summer in Buffalo Bills training camp as a defensive tackle. He gained a lot of fan following and did some positive charitable work off the field before the Bills cut him loose.
Now, Rogers is going to be a pro lacrosse player.
The Philadelphia Wings announced on Friday that they have signed Rogers.

Rogers was listed during camp at 6-5, 305.
In high school, he was committed to play lacrosse at Syracuse. He went to Westhill, not far outside of Syracuse, a lacrosse powerhouse.
Rogers' dad is the lacrosse head coach at SUNY Cortland in upstate New York, too.
The Wings announced that it's a three-year deal for Rogers, so it seems that he's going to give the lacrosse thing a real go of it.
It's pretty cool that he gets this opportunity.
