Walter Thurmond's breakout season at safety last year with the Philadelphia Eagles netted him plenty of lucrative offers in free agency, but he turned them all down.
Now, he is hanging up his spikes for good.
The Oregon product is retiring, according to NFL Media's Rand Getlin. ESPN first reported the development.
The Eagles have known about Thurmond's plans for months, per NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport, who also reported in March that Thurmond had turned down offers of $4 million-plus per year as he pondered retirement.
After missing a majority of 2014 with a torn pectoral muscle, Thurmond started all 16 games for the Eagles in 2015, netting three picks, two forced fumbles and more than 50 tackles.
