Retiring from the NFL to pursue his PhD and study CTE.
Should be locked up for all the money he stole from the Jags. Dude was worthless as a football player. Hopefully the piece will put more effort into his studies than he did his football.
He retired the year he left Denver.
I could pile on with the Julius hate, but instead I'll actually say best of luck to him and I hope he can help make some serious progress toward preventing/treating CTE. That could be way more important than what he did or didn't do while he was in uniform.

Lol that is exactly what I thought. Guy was in it for the payday and nothing more. I want to say more power to him, but I can't respect laziness. Going for the money isnt a issue, but when you just stop trying, you lost my respect.

If he puts the same effort into that as he did football, the research is probably going backwards.
He's going to pursue a PhD in Psychology. But it appears all he has done is take a few courses as audits? OK.........
Just wait a year or two, dude will look like Fat Albert
