Nasir Adderley shocked the NFL three years ago when he chose to retire.

The Los Angeles Chargers defensive back was just 25 years old at the time.

Now at age 28, Adderley wants a do-over. He's coming back to football.

Adderley wrote on social media on Monday that he wants to return to the NFL.

“It’s now been three years since I left the NFL, and I am extremely happy with my development,” Adderley wrote. “Health, family, and entrepreneurship were my top priorities, and I’m proud of what I’ve been able to accomplish. The freedom to manage my own schedule was very important to me, but what I didn’t realize was how much I’d miss having football in my life. The competition, the brotherhood, and just being involved in the game that means so much to me and my family. Therefore, I am officially announcing my intention to return to the NFL.”

Adderley was a Chargers' second-round pick in 2019 out of Delaware.

He played 50 games in four seasons for the Chargers, grabbing three interceptions and racking up 232 tackles.

His rookie contract had expired at the time he retired, which means that he is a free agent upon his return to the NFL.

He'd be a speculative add, but all he needs is one team to believe that his past ability is still in there. Frankly, there's no reason to believe he can't still got the job done, as he should still be in his athletic prime.

It'll be fascinating to hear more about Adderley's journey outside the NFL, and now he's back.
