Rookie Lowell Lotulelei retiring from football


Recommended Posts

I remember seeing Lotulelei's name being thrown around here a lot prior to the Draft, as a player many thought the Bills should pursue. After hearing this news of his retirement, I'm glad the Bills didn't pick him up. To be honest I even double checked to make sure we didn't sign him, as a rookie announcing his early retirement is quite the Billsy thing to happen to a team.

Any medical reasons being reported?

Nothing yet but medical is speculated 

 

edit: sounds like his commitment to Football was questioned by teams, which led to him going undrafted

He needs to man up and give that money back. 

 

Reports that I just read said they waived him, so he's going to retire from football since he got cut.

The report was that it was a $15,000 signing bonus.

I'm sure Denver will let him keep it since they cut him.

He was a UDFA. Many UDFAs realize once they get to NFL they will not succeed.
