Tomsula wasn’t shocked by Anthony Davis retirement
On Friday, 49ers tackle Anthony Davis provided the NFL with a surprise by retiring at age 25. The move didn’t surprise head coach Jim Tomsula.
“I can’t say it was shocking at all,” Tomsula told reporters in the aftermath of the news.
“Anthony’s been working on himself right now, that’s what he’s been doing,” Tomsula said. “Look, Anthony wants to step away and he wants to get his mind and his body right and that’s where he wants to go and he has every right to do that. We wish him the best.”
If it sounds as if the 49ers knew Davis may be retiring, it’s because they apparently did.
