ST. LOUIS -- Heisman Trophy winner Sam Bradford will have season-ending shoulder surgery and expects to enter the NFL draft in April.

ESPN.com's Tim Griffin writes about all things Big 12 in his conference blog.

 

The Oklahoma quarterback injured his right, throwing shoulder twice this season, most recently against Texas on Oct. 10.

 

The school announced Sunday that Dr. James Andrews will perform the operation Wednesday in Birmingham, Ala. Bradford is expected to address reporters following the Sooners' practice on Monday night in Norman, Okla.

 

Bradford will hold a news conference at 6 p.m. Monday.

 

"I dreamed about coming to Oklahoma my whole life," Bradford said Sunday in a statement. "That's the reason I came back for this season. And I came back to play, not sit on the bench. That's the reason I tried to play after the injury. I'm very disappointed that it didn't work out differently.

 

"Under these circumstances, and after talking to several people, this is the right thing for me to do at this point."

Interesting choice. What do you guys think about it?
