Former Ohio State running back Antonio Pittman is now working as a firefighter with the Columbus Fire Department.

Pittman recently graduated from the Columbus Fire Academy and spoke about his new career, which he said became his dream after injuries cut his football career short.

Pittman grew up in Akron and played with the Buckeyes from 2004 until 2006, where he rushed for over 2,900 hundred yards and 22 touchdowns.

Pittman says he is looking forward to his new job and being part of a great new team.
