Today, Tennesee Titans linebacker Derrick Morgan has surprisingly announced his retirement from the NFL. Morgan, 30 years old, has his sites set on things bigger than football. His retirement gives Georgia Bulldogs’ rookie LB D’Andre Walker a chance to shine for the Titans in 2019. Morgan was a free agent and announced his retirement today:
Morgan will pursue a career in business. He and fellow Titans’ OLB Brian Orakpo both retired in the same off-season leaving a void at outside linebacker for the Titans. The Titans had a solid defense in 2019, but will need to replace the steady pass rush production of the duo.
