Delhomme To Retire

It looks like quarterback Jake Delhomme is finally ready to hang his spikes up. The 37-year old started the 2011 season on his living room couch but was called into duty after injuries struck. The Houston Texans needed someone to backup T.J. Yates after the injuries to Matt Leinart and Matt Schaub and that Delhomme did. He appeared in only one game going 18 for 28 passing, with 211 yards and a touchdown.

Jake hasn’t played a full 16 games since 2008, so yea I’d say it’s about time for him to hang it up. He’s sacrificed his body enough and hopefully made more then enough money.
