Former San Francisco 49ers linebacker NaVorro Bowman informed the team today that he is retiring from the NFL and wanted to do it as a member of the team. The 49ers don’t have a roster spot to do a formal one-day contract signing, but Bowman wanted it clear he is considered to be going out as a Niner.
It’s impossible to mention Bowman without talking about “The Pick at the Stick.”
The third round pick in the 2010 NFL Draft formed one of the greatest duos at linebacker in history.
