After sitting out the entire 2022 season, defensive tackle Malik Jackson has decided its time to move on from the NFL.
Jackson, 33, announced his retirement after 10 seasons during a Friday appearance on NFL Network’s Good Morning Football. The former Super Bowl champion and Pro Bowler confirmed his decision after also appearing on Thursday’s GMFB where he was introduced by host Sara Walsh as a free agent.
“Yeah, I’m done, I’m retired” Jackson said with a smile after Walsh teed up the breaking news. “I appreciated the free agency tag, it made me feel good but I was like, ’Nah, I’m not leaving the couch right now.’ I’m happy at home.”
