NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Christian Abercrombie celebrated a major victory, by completing his last rehab session following his serious brain injury last year.

The Tennessee State University athlete collapsed during a football game. He was rushed to the hospital with a brain injury that kept him from speaking and walking for quite some time.

On Thursday, he posted a picture to Twitter saying, "Today was my last day at the Sheperd center thank you Jesus."

Christian and his parents sat down with NewsChannel 5's Jon Burton to talk about his recovery.

They said the journey has been tough but gave all the credit to God for his progress.
