Former Bills OL Richie Incognito retires from NFL
Former Buffalo Bills offensive lineman Richie Incognito retired from the NFL on Friday. He signed a one-day deal with the Las Vegas Raiders to retire as a member of the team.
Incognito, 39, has not played in the NFL since 2020.
Playing with the Bills from 2015 to 2017, Incognito made three Pro Bowls. He also was on the team in 2009 for three games.
Throughout his NFL career Incognito had troubles follow him. He was suspended for misconduct related to the treatment of teammate Jonathan Martin which caused him to not play in 2014.
After that is when he signed in Buffalo, but the ending there become awkward as well.
Incognito had an issue involving an incident at a gym and his Bills career ended when he abruptly retired and went on to ask the team to release him.
Eventually he went on to sign with the Raiders and miss the entire 2021 season due to an Achilles injury.
Incognito was originally a third-round pick of the St. Louis Rams in 2005. He also played for the Miami Dolphins.
