Bellamy was a member of the 2010 Ohio State Football teams that won the Big Ten Championship and Sugar Bowl. He would later depart football in general in 2012 over “personal reasons.”
“Adam is working through some personal family matters right now and when he gets that taken care of, we will welcome him back with open arms,” Coach Vrabel said in 2012 before Bellamy’s departure was announced by a team spokesman. “We miss him in our [meeting] room and when Adam gets those things taken care of he’s going to be able to come back,” reported MyTwintiers.
Bellamy’s connection to the football team was written in his obituary published in The Plain Dealer.
