NFL Notes: Bills' Anquan Boldin announces retirement

Anquan Boldin says a violent, racially charged protest in Charlottesville, Virginia, caused him to re-assess his priorities and led to the Buffalo Bills receiver's decision to retire after 14 NFL seasons. In interview Monday on SiriusXM NFL Radio, Boldin said he's "uncomfortable" with how divided the nation is and wants to dedicate his entire focus to humanitarian and criminal justice work. Boldin spoke a day after abruptly informing the Bills he was retiring a little under two weeks after signing a one-year contract.
