Apparently, long-time New England Patriots defensive back Patrick Chung did have big news to share after all: he’s hanging up his cleats.
Chung announced Thursday morning via an Instagram post that he is retiring from the NFL.
“I want to say thank you to the Patriots organization, my family, my fans, coaches, just everyone,” wrote Chung. “I’m in tears writing this but I’ve decided to hang up the cleats. Bill, Mr. Kraft (mean mug) thank you for giving me the opportunity to play for your team for 11 years. I love you. Bill for teaching me life on and off the field, I will not forget that.
