Five-Time Pro Bowler Elvis Dumervil Announces Retirement

Former Broncos and Ravens outside linebacker Elvis Dumervil retired from the NFL on Thursday and announced his retirement on Twitter.

"After spending a great deal of time talking to my family and prayerfully considering what's next in my career, I have made the difficult decision to step away from the NFL at this time," Dumervil wrote. "It's been an incredible 12-year run."

Dumervil was drafted by the Broncos in the fourth round of the 2006 draft and spent six seasons in Denver before signing with the Ravens in 2013. He ended his career after a season with San Francisco in 2017 where he led the 49ers with 6.
