Former Pro Bowl defensive tackle Malik Jackson announced his retirement on Friday after 10 NFL seasons.

"I'm done. I'm not leaving the couch right now," Jackson said on NFL Network's "Good Morning Football."

Jackson, 33, spent his first four NFL seasons with the Denver Broncos (2012-15), helping the team to a victory in Super Bowl 50.

He played his next three campaigns with the Jacksonville Jaguars (2016-18), earning Pro Bowl honors in 2017 after registering a career-high eight sacks.

Jackson played two seasons with the Philadelphia Eagles (2019-20) and one with the Cleveland Browns (2021).
