Former Denver Broncos linebacker Shaquil Barrett has announced his retirement after a 10-season NFL career, including a standout period with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers where he led the league with 19.5 sacks in 2019. Meanwhile, veteran running back Kenyan Drake has also retired after eight seasons in the NFL. Drafted by the Miami Dolphins in the third round of the 2016 NFL draft, Drake played for multiple teams including the Arizona Cardinals, where he had a career-high season in 2020. Drake is known for his role in the 'Miami Miracle' play against the New England Patriots in 2018. Both players cited a desire to spend more time with family and move on from the business side of football as key reasons for their retirement.
