Michael Vick officially announces retirement from NFL

According to ESPN’s Josina Anderson, Michael Vick, one of the most polarizing figures in NFL history, announced that he has officially retired from the NFL.

“In this moment right now, I’m willing to say yeah, I’m officially retired,” Vick told Anderson. “I think it’s time. I think going through the 2016 season without playing and being able to be a spectator and watch the game and enjoy it from afar and root for a lot of the players and coaches I once played for, I think kind of summed it all up for me.
