We got a chance to learn a little more about Jarryd Hayne’s retirement decision, as well as his random start at running back last year.
Jarryd Hayne is currently in the midst of preparing for the 2016 Rio Summer Games, playing rugby for the Fiji National Team. Earlier this week, Hayne was doing some media as part of his new global ambassador position with Fiji Airways, and he had a chance to discuss his time with the San Francisco 49ers. He talked about why he left early, and some regrets he has about the NFL.
Hayne said he viewed Chip Kelly’s playbook as too intense for a guy who had no football experience prior to last season.
