Former Titans DL Jack Crawford announces retirement

Former Titans DL Jack Crawford has announced his retirement.

Former Tennessee Titans defensive lineman Jack Crawford is calling it a career.

Crawford took to Instagram on Tuesday to announce he was retiring after 10 seasons in the NFL, one of which was spent in Nashville in 2020.

“After 10 seasons in the NFL I know my time has come to step away from the game and close the chapter of my life in the League,” Crawford wrote.

“At 16 years old I left my family and friends in the UK and moved to the US. I couldn’t have imagined the journey that lay ahead of me, it feels like it flew by and I’m grateful for every minute.

“I want to thank all of the organizations that took a chance on me and all of the fans that supported me. I will never take for granted the memories of going to battle with my friends and teammates.”
