Alstott Retiring 

Post#1 » by PR07 » Thu Aug 9, 2007 6:23 pm

ESPN.com - Buccaneers fullback Mike Alstott is expected to announce his retirement Thursday, multiple Tampa Bay-area media outlets reported.

The team has scheduled a 2 p.m. ET press conference in Tampa, at which the retirement is expected to be announced.

The announcement comes after Alstott missed a third consecutive day of workouts Thursday as the team prepared for its preseason opener Friday against the Patriots. His retirement is reportedly not injury-related.


Sad to hear, one of the great Bucs' is hanging them up. Alstott will be missed.

Looks like he's holding off on retiring, but he is effectively done for the '07 season.

Return to Tampa Bay Buccaneers
