The career he would have had. Gotta respect his reasoning for retirement but damn he was good!
He could have been that next great niner lb between PWill/Mon5t3r and Fred/Dre. Big what if forsure.
Biggest what if I can remember in sports
Bro came in like a wrecking ball
I remember. At least he gave his signing bonus back. I think
2014 was weird, our D gave up a decent amount of points, but were still a top 10 unit, led the league in interceptions, but our offense was complete garbage all year.
Man. I wish he played longer but I get why he retired so early. Makes you wonder how the lb position would have changed in 49er history. Do we still go after Fred? We probably wouldn’t have wasted a pick on Ruben Foster
Ah, the NFC, where you always have the best of the NFC South gets a pity #4 spot. The more things change, the more they stay the same.
I was at that game!
Also noting that our current GM John Lynch is commentating
Bro imagine if we had him and Fred
He was a phenom… that dude was on track to be the GOAT and he up and quit on us. So painful.
I asked for his jersey for Christmas…. And got it.
