YoloinOhio Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Good luck, AJ. The Stanford education will be valuable and I wish him peace with his decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Best of luck to him!! Football is a tough game. That's why I never fault guys for holding out for more money or retiring early. Your earning years and small and your health risks large. Get what you can get and get out healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeF Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Can't fault this-- 2 concussions last year and the 3rd and 4th of his career...he has memories from those last two games he can pass to his kids and grandkids. Good luck kid! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoSaint Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Do we save any $$$? When a second year udfa that spent time on the practice squad retires it's hard to replace him with a guy making less money. Odds are we break even with another league minimum no guaranteed money guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 (edited) Do we save any $$$?he was due to make 500-600k, but probably not in top 51 so cap likely not really affected. Edited April 7, 2016 by YoloinOhio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DDD Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Good luck, AJ. The Stanford education will be valuable and I wish him peace with his decision.

sodbuster Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 (edited) His cap hit was so low, we might actually lose space because of this. Good decision by him though. He got to live his dream, and I'm sure he'll find success in future endeavors. Edited April 7, 2016 by sodbuster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
