The University of Cincinnati football program is dealing with the tragedy of a fatal accident involving one of its players after a traffic wreck Thursday claimed the life of 19-year-old Chamoda Kennedy-Palmore, a walk-on running back.
On Saturday, the team revealed a touching tribute to their fallen teammate -- a decal with the initials "CKP" that will be worn on each player's helmet. Coach Tommy Tuberville tweeted that the decal will be worn on the helmets for the entire season.
We will add this decal to our helmets for the rest of the season. #RIPChamoda #Bearcats pic.twitter.com/DehWgXFgMb
