Former Alabama DL Quinton Dial Retires from NFL

In an Instagram post earlier today, former Alabama defensive linemen Quinton Dial announced his retirement from the NFL.

“This is my official retirement to you and the NFL of my retirement,” said Dial.

Within the post, Dial deemed that the injuries that he has picked up throughout his tenure in the league are the cause of his retirement.

“I knew this day would come but I didn’t know when. That is why I’ve prepared myself since becoming an NFL player; because you are always one play away from your career being over,” said Dial.
