Tennessee Titans OLB Brian Orakpo retires from NFL

Following the loss to the Indianapolis Colts, the Tennessee Titans have officially entered the offseason. During the offseason, roster moves and changes are a lock, and they have started early for the Titans as OLB Brian Orakpo has announced his retirement.

The 32-year-old was an impending free agent and it was unclear whether or not the Titans would’ve brought him back. He wasn’t his normal self in 2018 and the Titans have a pair of young edge rushers in Harold Landry and Sharif Finch who are ready to take over, but Orakpo may have been wanted back on a short-term, cheaper deal.
