KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Safety Husain Abdullah was one of the most thoughtful players for the Kansas City Chiefs since he joined them in 2013. So it was no surprise Abdullah had some interesting comments about his retirement from football during a SportsCenter interview with Hannah Storm on Thursday morning.
Abdullah cited his health as the main reason for his retirement this week when he announced it on his Instagram account. Abdullah suffered what he said was the fifth concussion of his career last season.
In the SportsCenter interview, Abdullah said the birth of his fourth child, a girl, on March 18 might have been the event that clinched his decision to retire.
