john lynch retiredMonday Marked the official retirement of hard hitting safety John Lynch. Lynch decided to retire a nine time Pro Bowler playing for both the Denver Broncos and Tampa Bay Buccaneers and finishing his career with 1,277 tackles, 100 catch preventions and 26 interceptions in 224 regular-season games.

 

“Just everything you’d want in a player,” Broncos coach Mike Shanahan said Friday after hearing about Lynch’s retirement. “He set an example on how to be a pro.” Lynch had made a name for himself and set a price for coming into the middle of the field. He will undoubtedly be missed for the tone he set and standards as a Pro.

 

Even after his 11 year carear seemed to be over with the Buccanneers including a 2002 Super Bowl championship Lynch landed in Denver and accomplished four more Pro Bowl appearances and finally an AFC championship loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers.

 

After departing from the Broncos and cut from the Patriots Lynch is leaving the game behind.
