The two-time 1,000-yard rusher is hanging up his cleats due to a neck injury, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. The Seahawks later confirmed that they have released him with a failed physical designation, which will allow Carson to collect millions in injury protection benefits.
The Seahawks posted a tribute video to Carson on social media.
