Former Alabama running back Glen Coffee explained his sudden decision to leave pro football and the NFL's San Francisco 49ers today, telling the Press-Register that it was God's will taking him in another direction.
"Honestly, it was something I wrestled with for a long time," Coffee said. "I just feel like it's giving in to His will, man. I feel like I was wasting the organization's time, as far as the Niners. I was wasting my time. I should have never entered the league, and I'm sorry I had to do it in the middle of camp and leave my teammates like that. But it was something that I felt like I needed to do."
Coffee, at age 23, is retiring after only one season with the 49ers.
