Blake Bortles quietly entered official retirement this offseason and is announcing it for the first time.
"I have not touched a football since January," the former Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback said on a podcast. "I have officially retired."
Bortles, the No. 3 overall pick in the 2015 NFL draft, was with the Jaguars for five seasons and became a favorite pop culture name when "The Good Place" began referencing him. In 2019, he joined the Los Angeles Rams as Jared Goff's backup and attempted two passes.
