To announce his retirement, Suh shared a heartfelt message on social media, paying tribute to his late father, who he lost exactly one year ago today. It was his dad who told Suh to “let football go” before he passed, telling Ndamukong, “You’ve done everything you set out to do.”

Ndamukong Suh has announced his retirement from the NFL, officially putting an end to a 13-year career that included five All-Pro selections and a 2010 Defensive Rookie of the Year award, along with a Super Bowl win with the Buccaneers in 2020.
