Tackle Tyler Polumbus is ending his NFL career on a high note.
Polumbus was on the Broncos roster for their Super Bowl 50 victory and he’s decided that was as good a place as any to drop the curtain on his playing days. Polumbus entered the league as an undrafted free agent with Denver in 2008 and played for three other teams before bringing things full circle in a return to the team he grew up rooting for, announced his retirement on Tuesday.
“From the extreme nerves of my first start with Denver on Monday Night Football against James Harrison and Lamar Woodley of the Steelers, to the BeastQuake run in Seattle when we beat the Saints in the playoffs (it literally caused an earthquake), the 7 game winning streak that took an out of the picture Redskins team to NFC East Champs and the playoffs, the confetti snow angels that my kids made at the Super Bowl, the amazing moments of my career are abundant,” Polumbus wrote.
Polumbus played 112 games and made 57 starts over the course of his career.
