'I Can Do Whatever I Want!' Julio Jones Revels in Retired Life

Julio Jones, one of the NFL's most dominant wide receivers, says he has zero regrets about hanging up his cleats. In an exclusive interview with TMZ Sports, the seven-time Pro Bowler made it clear: he gave football everything, and now he's loving the freedom to live life on his own terms.

"I can do whatever I want!" Jones exclaimed, flashing a wide smile. "I don't miss it one bit. I left it all out there, and now it's my time."

The former Atlanta Falcons superstar officially retired in April 2025, capping a career that included multiple All-Pro selections, a spot on the 2010s All-Decade Team, and a legacy as one of the most feared pass-catchers of his generation.

When asked if he ever thought about making a comeback, Jones laughed it off. "Nah, I'm good. Retirement is beautiful. I travel, spend time with family, and do whatever I feel like. No alarms, no meetings. It's great."

Jones spoke candidly about adjusting to life after football, noting that the transition was easier than he expected. "I was ready. I knew when it was time. Now I'm just enjoying every day."

Fans may miss seeing No. 11 torch secondaries, but Jones is clearly savoring his new chapter.
