RELEASED Sean Lee retiring

[Starforever]

Good riddance.

As a lifelong college football fan, that scandal stained and sullied one of the once heralded and respected programs in the history of the sport.
He's been a Superstar for both Penn State & Dallas Cowboys. Fourteen years took a toll on his body. The harder they play, the more inuries the body takes.

wish there was also news of Jaclyn Smith being shown the road

I hope he goes into coaching. He's got the mind for it.

AND he did the right thing, unless some past players, and retired BEFORE the draft so the Cowboys weren't blindsided.

 

[DenCWBY]

That’s awesome. Never seen that before.

Does anyone have the year/date of that game. I would love to watch that whole game on youtubet again. Lee was all over the place in the eagles backfield. He was like calling their plays.

 

[DuncanIso]

Now all the #LeeHaters can celebrate.

 

[Cowpolk]

Good riddance.

Eat um...er..uh well you

Nothing against Lee personally, Dallas does not know how to ease players into retirement, or the bench, or another team.

Lee had a good career, and I wish him well. Bringing him back as a player, would be an embarrassment.

 

[Bigtex67]

Hall of Famer!

Well okay, he's not. Coulda/woulda/shoulda.

Good luck in your future endeavors...

I agree, not a HOF player. Would have been without the injuries. Do you think he gets into the Ring of Honor?

When healthy he was one of the best defensive players on the team in the 2000s.

Lee was Pro Bowl in 2015, All Pro in 2016. The only defender to make the Pro Bowl either year. The only other defensive All Pro in the 2010s was Demarcus Ware. Good company.

Peace out Snake Lee

 

[Knotamus]

One of my favorite players.

When he was on his game, he was arguably the best LB in the league, hands down. Easily one of the best at dissecting the opponents playbook and offensive tendencies. Which is why he may not have won any Sparq score contest.. but he sure played faster than anyone else bc he knew what was coming.

He’s a favorite bc he’s one of those players you wouldn’t mind your kids looking up to. Lee’s devotion to the game, tenacity to be better, and determination after injury comprising his character.

In today’s age where players ‘swipe’ after a tackle five yards down the field..smh..It’s nice to know there’s still players that are humble. Lee acted like he’d been there before after a great play and let the fans/media boast ab his play.

Yeah, Injuries robbed him of greatness, but for the fans that knew, enjoyed and appreciated him. Thank you Sean for your contributions to Dallas. I can only hope more players follow your lead.

 

[Westcoasthabsfan]

Thanks for your service Sean

 

[Knotamus]

For those that need reminding that he was the face of our defense at one point.. enjoy..

 

[Captain-Crash]

but, can we like him because he hurt Dez's fragile feelings?
hum Lee must have been right about getting rid of Dez because he hasn't done crap since they got rid of him.

 

[vicjagger]

Just making room for Micah Parsons....

 

[CanadianCowboysFan]

sucks, but at least we know we need a body there now...rather know now than in a week from now! Much better than what witten did

was thinking the same

 

[Section446]

Overdue.

 

[bigE79]

Welp...there goes my favorite current player retiring w/o a sniff at a sb... ****** sad... thanks general Lee, for giving it all you had and then some...wish you nothing but success.

 

[bigE79]

Looking forward to seeing Jaylon this is now his defense on Twitter.

We're are so screwed!!
