OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- Defensive end Derek Wolfe announced his retirement on Friday after a decade in the NFL.
Wolfe, 32, decided to leave the game a little over a month after reaching an injury settlement with the Baltimore Ravens. He was waived by Baltimore on June 14, a day after he revealed on social media that he had undergone his second hip surgery of the year. Wolfe missed all of last season with hip and back injuries.
"After 10 seasons in the NFL, I've decided it's time to step away from the game," Wolfe said in a video released on the Denver Broncos' Twitter account.
