Golden Nuggets: Jarryd Hayne retires, Russell Wilson gives commencement speech

Good morning, 49ers fans! It was kind of an odd Sunday. The big news came along late Sunday morning when Jarryd Hayne announced his retirement. Hayne was approached by the Fiji Rugby Seven team to compete for a chance at the 2016 Summer Olympics. There is a potential concern about the drug-testing policy for the Olympics, but I have to think this gets cleared up.

There is plenty to read about Hayne's retirement from the NFL, but the other interesting story this weekend was not 49ers-related. Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson gave the commencement speech at the University of Wisconsin.
