'Engagement in sport career transition planning enhances performance' David Lavallee (The world's first Professor of Duty of Care in Sport).
There is academic evidence that studying while playing will pay off earlier than you expected. Research by Professor Lavallee at Abertay University shows that players involved in post sports planning are likely to be selected more for matches and enjoy a longer playing career.

BETTER EARLY, BUT IT'S NEVER TOO LATE
To illustrate the two extremes of the English Premier League, there is a 1 in 10000 chance to get into the Premier League from British academies. and then the average career is just eight years...
Current data shows the average career length in the Big Four professional leagues in North America ranges from an average of just over five years for the National Hockey League and Major League Baseball, to just under five years for the NBA and only three years in the NFL.
A recent survey of 173 former athletes, (half of them women) who retired from competition level within the past 20 years, found women are almost 2.3 times more likely to report anxiety. Younger people in the survey presented greater symptoms of anxiety, which has shown to be linked with reduced well- being and poorer sleep.
This may be that men in general are less willing to reveal their struggle with anxiety and mental health in a professional sport setting. (Montero 2024)
