Super Bowl champ Chris Long announces retirement

One of the most consistent pass rushers of the past decade has called it quits on his career.

Chris Long announced his retirement in a social media post Saturday evening.

Long, 34, enjoyed a ton of success during a career that started with him being the second overall pick of the then-St. Louis Rams back in 2009. He recorded 70 sacks over an 11-year career.

The latter part of Long’s career was spent as a situational pass rusher for multiple championship contenders. He earned a title with the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LI and defeated the same Patriots squad as a member of the Eagles the following season.

This past year saw Long record 6.5 sacks as a member of the Eagles.
