Offensive lineman Justin Pugh announced his retirement from the NFL on Friday.
Pugh, who turns 35 in August, made his intentions known at East Rutherford, N.J., as a member of the New York Giants.
"I've played here six of my 11 years in the NFL," Pugh said. "Not many players get to go out on their terms, and after 11 years playing in the NFL, I am officially retiring from the league. I thought I was going to do another one, but just didn't have it in the tank. I started losing weight and started feeling good, and didn't want to do a 12th year.
