Former Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker Ola Adeniyi has retired from the NFL. Sharing the news via an Instagram post Wednesday afternoon, Adeniyi called it a career after spending five years in the league, 2018-2022.
His post accompanied a collection of photos throughout his career, including several as a Steeler.
“Football has taken me places I never imagined,” his post in part read. “From earning a full-ride scholarship to playing multiple years in the league, I can walk this earth knowing I’m part of the 1%. The game has given me a foundation to tackle any obstacle life throws my way, and it has blessed me with some of the best relationships and brotherhoods a man could ask for.
