It's been a busy offseason for the Las Vegas Raiders as the front office has done a great job constructing the roster. Although he hasn't played since 2020, the franchise will surely miss Richie Incognito as the four-time NFL Pro Bowler has officially announced his retirement. After a long, successful career, the veteran left guard is moving on to the next chapter of his life.

The Raiders shared a lengthy letter Incognito wrote to announce his retirement from the league. His career began back in 2006 when he was selected by the, then, St. Louis Rams. Since then, the veteran left guard played for the Miami Dolphins and Buffalo Bills before landing with the Vegas franchise in 2019.

The last time Richie Incognito was on the field was in 2020, where he played just two games. After a lengthy time away from football, the long-time veteran retires from the league with the Raiders. The former Pro Bowler explains the lessons football has taught him along the way. He states:

“Football has taught me a strong work ethic, a willing to get better every day and a desire to continue growing. It has taught me that while what you get is important, who you become is more important. All of these lessons I'll take with me into the next chapter. Because today, I'm officially retiring from the NFL.” – Former Raiders left guard Richie Incognito.

And with that, Incognito rides off into the sunset to begin life after football. As for the Raiders, they obviously appreciate everything he has done for the franchise. They move on without him as the team hopes to make a deep playoff run this season.
