According to Les Bowen of the Philadelphia Daily News, there is a growing belief among people around the Eagles franchise that safety Walter Thurmond is retiring. Thurmond, 28, is coming off his healthiest and one of the most productive seasons of his career, but has had a detailed injury history and interests outside of professional football. Thurmond, a free agent, was not expected to return to the City of Brotherly Love due to coaching staff changes, but there has not been much reported interest in him on the market.
