Former Denver Broncos defensive lineman Mike Purcell has retired from the NFL, his agent, Cameron Foster, told The Denver Gazette's Chris Tomasson.
Purcell, 33, played high school football in Highlands Ranch and he went to college at Wyoming before joining the San Francisco 49ers as an undrafted free agent in 2013. After four years in San Francisco, Purcell bounced between the Chicago Bears, Carolina Panthers, New England Patriots and Kansas City Chiefs.
Purcell then spent a season playing in the AAF with the Salt Lake Stallions in the spring of 2019.
