After 14 seasons in the NFL, Ted Ginn Jr. has announced his retirement.
The 36-year-old explained his decision on Friday at a press conference.
“I’ve dedicated my entire life to football until now,” Ginn said. “I’m going out in peace. ... On my own terms, not forced out.”
Prior to starting his professional career, Ginn was one of the best college football players in the country during his three seasons at Ohio State. He was named to the first team All-Big Ten as a junior in 2006 after recording 781 receiving yards and 706 return yards on special teams.
