Aqib Talib Hangs Up His Cleats
4 years agoFormer Denver Broncos and New England Patriots All-Pro cornerback Aqib Talib announced his retirement from football on Wednesday. Talib said he seriously considered an offer to return to New England and head coach Bill Belichick for a role covering opposing tight ends, but in the end, his heart just wasn't in it anymore. In his 13-year career, Talib made five straight Pro Bowls from 2013 to 2017 and was a first-team All-Pro in 2016 with the Broncos. He won a Super Bowl ring with Denver in 2015 and was an elite lockdown cornerback in his prime. The 34-year-old spent the last two seasons with the Rams but struggled with injuries and played in only 13 total games. He will now take his talents to the booth as a commentator.
