Offensive lineman Jack Mewhort announced his retirement from football Wednesday, the Indianapolis Colts said in a statement.
"I would like to thank the Irsay family and the entire Colts organization for giving me the opportunity to live a childhood dream," Mewhort said. "The fans and the city of Indianapolis have treated me like one of their own, and I am forever grateful. Wearing the horseshoe was one of the biggest honors I have ever known, and I will always bleed blue. Go Colts!"
Mewhort, 26, was a second-round draft pick in 2014 and was entering his fifth season with the Colts.
