Bills Guard Richie Incognito Announces Retirement On Twitter

Pro Bowl guard Richie Incognito announced he is retiring from the NFL on Twitter Tuesday morning.

Incognito has spent the last three years with the Bills and has earned three of his four career Pro Bowl bids during that time. Vic Carucci of the Buffalo News reports that Incognito said he has health issues that are pushing him toward retirement.

"My liver and kidneys are shutting down," Incognito told Carucci. "The stress is killing me. It's just about doing what's right. I just want to be in the Hall of Fame."

Incognito recently restructured his contract with Buffalo, and then fired his agent on Twitter not long after that.
