Veteran offensive lineman Jared Veldheer said in a statement to NFL Network on Thursday that he plans to retire after he was suspended for six games by the league.
Veldheer, 33, said in a statement to NFL Network that a Clomid prescription resulted in the suspension. He said was taking the medication because of "abnormally low" testosterone, which he suggested was "caused from pituitary damage suffered from repeated blows to the head."
This will be the second time Veldheer has retired from the NFL. The Green Bay Packers lured him out of retirement in November 2019.
