Cohen Craddock was the baby of his family, a gregarious 13-year-old who “cared more about others than he did himself,” his father Ryan Craddock said. “He was very compassionate, very bighearted and all the time wanted to try to make you laugh, make you feel better and bring people’s spirits up,” Craddock told CNN. But Cohen’s West Virginia family is now left agonizing without him. The teen died Saturday after a collision during football practice Friday – marking at least the third student football player to die within the first few weeks of this school year. Their deaths highlight the risks of the America’s most popular sport as the country enters Labor Day weekend and football season. Cohen’s fatal injury happened the same day a 16-year-old football player from Alabama was fatally injured during his school’s season opener. Caden Tellier, the quarterback for John T.
