Commanders’ Four-Time Pro Bowler Announces Retirement at 33
Ryan Kerrigan is hanging up his cleats and calling an end to his career with the Commanders.
After spending last season with NFC East rival Eagles, the Commanders signed the four-time Pro Bowl linebacker and defensive end to a one-day contract to retire as a member of the burgundy and gold.
“While I'm thankful for the amazing times and memories I was able to have as a player, I’m equally thankful to now have the wisdom and courage to walk away,” Kerrigan said in a statement to the public. “We all eventually come to the end of our playing days, and that time is now for me.”
