New NFLPA president Domonique Foxworth won’t be the NFLPA president for more than one term.

Foxworth tells DBLCoverage.com, a UK-based NFL site, that he’s likely done.

“I think that I’ve probably made the decision that I’m going to move forward and stop playing football,” Foxworth said, adding that he recently underwent hip surgery.

The former Bronco, Falcon, and Raven added that he is applying to business schools, and that he intends to be a student, not a player, during his time as NFLPA president. The Ravens released Foxworth earlier this year. He played sparingly in 2011 after suffering a torn ACL during training camp in 2010.

Regarded as a rising star within the NFLPA, don’t be surprised if Foxworth lands a full-time job with the union after completing his education. He won’t be eligible for a second term as NFLPA president in 2014, given that he won’t have played since 2011.
