New England Patriots wide receiver Jalen Hurd announced his retirement on Tuesday, exactly one week after signing with the team.
Hurd, 27, never played an NFL snap. He was selected by the 49ers in the third round (67th overall) of the 2019 draft, but injuries forced him to miss his first two seasons.
After beginning the 2021 campaign on injured reserve, Hurd was released by San Francisco on Nov. 11, 2021. He didn't join another team until signing with New England on July 25.
