Not many people would have had former New England Patriots running back Damien Harris announcing his retirement from the NFL on their bingo cards Monday night.
The 27-year-old Harris, who played four seasons with the Patriots and spent the 2023 campaign with the Buffalo Bills, called it a career after just five seasons in the league.
“For the past 20 years, playing the game of football has been one of the great privileges in my life,” Harris wrote on Instagram. “Getting to represent the name on the back of my jersey on and off the field, getting to compete at the highest level with and against the best competitors while winning championships, and being coached by the two greatest head coaches of all time in Nick Saban and Bill Belichick are all just a small part of what God has done in my life with the game of football.
