Former NFL defensive end Charles Grant registered 47.0 sacks during his NFL career with the Saints, now he can add “one take down of a student” to his resume.

Grant was a volunteer coach at Bowie State University and has been fired for slamming this student athlete into the ground and bleachers. The University is investigating the matter further.
