3-time Super Bowl champion LeGarrette Blount retires
Running back LeGarrette Blount announced his retirement Friday night after nine NFL seasons.
Blount is a three-time Super Bowl champion, winning twice with the New England Patriots and once with the Philadelphia Eagles.
The powerful tailback signed with the Tennessee Titans as an undrafted free agent in 2010. He was waived prior to the season opener but was claimed by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, with whom he spent three years and rushed for over 1,000 yards as a rookie.
Blount was difficult to tackle, especially in the red zone. He scored a league-high 18 touchdowns with New England in 2016, also amassing a career-high 1,161 yards on the ground.
The 33-year-old last played in 2018 with the Detroit Lions and spent part of one season with the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2014.
Blount finishes his career with 6,306 rushing yards and 58 total touchdowns across 132 games (62 starts).
