One of the most famous Frogs in TCU football history is set to retire from the NFL Monday.

LaDanian Tomlinson will return to San Diego to re-sign with the team that drafted him in 2001, the Chargers, and then immediately announce his retirement.

Tomlinson will retire as the NFL's fifth all-time leading rusher with 13,684 yards, behind Emmitt Smith, Walter Payton, Barry Sanders and Curtis Martin.

TCU's all-time leader in career rushing yards suited up in purple and white from 1997-2000 where he claimed almost every Horned Frog rushing record in the book.

Tomlinson was a Heisman Trophy finalist in 2000 to go with a Doak Walker Award honor and a consensus first team All-American honor for the same season.

In 1999, Tomlinson set the NCAA record for yards in one game with 406 against UTEP.

Tomlinson's retirement press conference will be streamed live on Chargers.com at 11 a.m. (PT) Monday.
