Learned so much from these dudes that I couldn't explain it in words. I came in almost 5 years ago now. I was blessed to learn and watch one of the best defenses to ever play this game... The type of players I had the privilege to watch @patricklwillis @navorro_bowman @aldonsmith #ahmadbrooks #parysharelson #dashongoldson @dontehitner31 #carlosrogers @illest972 #rickyjean #justinsmith @raymcd91 #issacsopoaga I saw what greatness really was from this group of guys... And we had some dogs on offense too... With JSmith retiring today I wish him and his family the best in the next chapter of their lives. But I know he can't/won't stay far from this team and this fan base. All the best to @patricklwillis #chrisborland and #justinsmith 👌👌👌👌 #respect

You can't find a harder working guy who lead by example on and off the field. Definition of how this game should be played. Farewell Cowboy
