Daniel Kilgore announces retirement

Former Miami Dolphins center Daniel Kilgore announced his retirement on Monday, sending out a tweet with a statement as he leaves the game. Kilgore spent ten years in the NFL, two of them with Miami. He played last season with the Kansas City Chiefs.

Kilgore was a fifth-round selection by the San Francisco 49ers in the 2011 NFL Draft. He spent seven years with the 49ers, appearing in 74 games with 39 starts. Miami traded for Kilgore from the 49ers in March 2018, swapping seventh-round picks with San Francisco. He started the first four games of the year in Miami that season, but a torn triceps muscle ended his season early.
