Sounds like hes retiring, but its hard to believe. From the level he played at last year, and his position coach Jim Tomsula coaching his first ever season, how can he retire?

Agreed but Cowboy doesn't seem the type who would hold a press conference just to say he's coming back for one more ride. He'd rather be the farthest away from the spotlight.
Has a press conference actually been announced? I thought the decision was just being announced. If no presser is made then he is coming back in my honest opinion. If a press conference is made then its done, he is gone.

I dont think a press conference has been scheduled yet. Barrows just said an announcement will come around 1 pm.
How about this. Justin comes back for 1 more year, then retires and joins Tomsula's staff as a DL coach? Sounds good.
Favorite memory of Cowboy: Playoff game against Saints when he bull rushed the Tackle into Bree and grabbing him with one arm

I thought him never making a pro-bowl until Tomsula started coaching him said enough
Wow. I thought for sure he was going to come back. Too bad!
