One of the best Ohio State defensive backs to ever suit up in the scarlet and gray is retiring from football after 13 fantastic seasons. The former consensus All-American and Jim Thorpe Award winner in college went to the NFL as a first-round draft pick and was named to three Pro-Bowls and won two Super Bowls, one with the Saints and one with the Eagles.
