Add Mark Sanchez to the growing list of quarterbacks who are hanging up their cleats and heading to a broadcast studio.
Sanchez is retiring from the NFL after a 10-year career with five teams and will become a college football commentator for ABC and ESPN, the New York Post reported.
After a stellar career at USC, the former No. 5 overall pick had a promising start to his NFL career, quarterbacking the New York Jets to the AFC Championship Game in each of his first two seasons.
But his production fell off after that, and his name became synonymous with the “Butt Fumble,” a play in which he accidentally ran into the backside of his own offensive lineman and dropped the football, leading to a New England Patriots return touchdown.
