Nick Mangold announces retirement from the NFL

After 11 seasons with the New York Jets, the team decided to release seven-time Pro Bowl center Nick Mangold ahead of last year’s free agency. He’s only been sidelined by an injury one time in his career — in 2016 — but wasn’t able to snag another roster spot to play in 2017. Now, the former Buckeye is officially hanging up his cleats, with the announcement he will retire.

I DECLARE RETIREMENNNTTTTTTT!

I will be signing a one day deal with @nyjets next week so I can retire a Jet.

Thank you to all!
