Free agent DL Jason Hatcher is retiring from the NFL after 10 seasons.

Hatcher turns 34 in July and hinted he may hang the cleats up following the Commanders' Wild Card loss to the Packers in January. The former 2006 third-round pick out of small school Grambling State was a late bloomer and didn't become a starter until 2011. From 2006-2010, Hatcher started one game and recorded 7.5 total sacks for Dallas. The next five years, Hatcher was a full-time player and one of the better interior pass rushers in football, recording 27 sacks across five seasons with Dallas (three) and Washington (two). The Commanders were interested in bringing back Hatcher, and the Saints were also in on him before signing Nick Fairley.

I always liked him on and off the field. I wish him nothing but the best. I also am happy that he can walk away on his OWN terms. That's huge.

Good player. I wish him well in life after football.

Peace on you Hatcher.
