Troy Polamalu retires after 12 seasons with Steelers


Troy Polamalu's clock to Canton can start now. The definitive Pittsburgh Steeler of the team's recent titles told the Herald-Standard (Uniontown, Pennsylvania) that he has decided to retire.


"I did not seriously consider playing elsewhere," Polamalu said in a phone interview with Jim Wexell. "It was just whether or not I wanted to play."


We can't say that Polamalu re-defined the safety position because he was one of a kind. It's not like there are youth coaches out there teaching kids to play like Polamalu because his unique skill set would be impossible to recreate. Who else could have made leaping over the line of scrimmage a signature move?

I always hear about him he should have retired a few years ago....good luck in his retirement.

His commercials are funny. He can do that.

Always liked him Jimmy "superfly" Snooka-style of play.


Now, he didn't "seriously consider" playing elsewhere because no one offered him stupid money. Lol
