North Carolina redshirt senior running back Caleb Hood announced his retirement from football on Friday.
"After much thought, prayer and discussion with my family, I have decided to retire from football," Hood wrote on Instagram. "My journey at UNC has been special and I appreciate my time here. I am excited to start the next chapter and will always take my memories of Carolina with me. I want to thank Coach [Bill] Belichick, Coach [Freddie] Kitchens and Coach [Natrone] Means for giving me an opportunity, as well as all my other coaches and teammates throughout my years of football for the impact they've all had on my life!"
