Raiders' Justin Tuck retiring after 11 seasons
Defensive end Justin Tuck has announced his retirement from the NFL after 11 seasons.
"It's been like a tug of war, and finally the rope broke," Tuck told FOX Sports' Mike Garafolo. "And where I fell was retirement." The longtime Giant spent the past two seasons in Oakland, notching only six sacks in 20 games as a torn pectoral cost him most of 2015. Tuck registered four 10-sack campaigns during his nine years with the Giants, and heads into retirement with 66.5 total quarterback takedowns.
In addition to his two Super Bowl titles, Tuck was a first-team All-Pro in 2008. He was slated for free agency before hanging up his cleats.
