Former Cowboy Connor Williams retires

[ShortRound]

Retired at 27, hope he saved up.

One of the few good second round picks here in recent memory

Just read this.......say its for personal reasons. I hope he's OK

No. That was Jonathon Martin who got bullied by Richie Incognito. They were never on the Cowboys. They were before Connor Williams ever made it to Miami.

I meant as a kid

Well yes and no.......we played him at guard but he was a top 5 center for the Dolphins

Wasn't he bullied

Yes but I apologized.

He should write his memoirs now.

He made over $20 million, I am sure he is fine. Good short term gig if you can.

Good for him.

He was an absolute stud for the Longhorns. I wish it would've carried over with the Cowboys.

Retiring during a season seems wrong

Lol, why is that? Nobody cares about what's going on with your health. Enough is enough.

Michigan Wolverines QB Tuttle "retired" a couple of weeks ago, he had started a couple of games this season. That was strange.

Why would he retire in the middle of a season? At least Gallup retired before the season started.

He was probably doing a lot of damage to his knee so he made the right decision for his future. He's only 27.

Perhaps the pain became too much for him to tolerate while playing. Everyone's human.

Just like that cornerback we drafted in the first round, I forget his name but he signed with miami. He said he wished he had never played football. He can't even run anymore.

Breaking News: I'm hoping he's in talks with Dak about possibly seeing life outside of football

C-T-E Might already have symptoms why risk it or push it?
The dude is educated and made his money and doesn't have 7 wives and 10 kids to feed.

Solid player.

His knee(s) must be wrecked to retire at 27.

hes always been off.

It's because the Cowboys coaches are idiots!!! Dumb idiots never understood how to properly use Connor Williams. He was a Center who was forced to play Guard. The Dolphins figured it out right away and used Connor properly for several years. Too bad Connor Williams tore up his knee. If not, he would still be playing and dominating at Center.
