A starting offensive lineman for three franchises is calling it quits.
Former Minnesota Vikings and Buffalo Bills OL Jeremiah Sirles announced his retirement on Monday, less than six years after entering the league as an undrafted free agent.
"The decision doesn't come easy, but after two major ankle surgeries last year, my wife and I have made the decision to see what the future holds for our family," Sirles wrote in a tweet. "Part of me will always be a kid who was able to play a game he loved for 20 years. Here is to the next steps and some exciting things lined up."
Sirles spent the 2019 regular season out of football. In total, he appeared in 42 games and made 20 starts.
