Laurent Duvernay-Tardif is retiring from professional football.
The Quebec native, 32, announced his retirement on social media Thursday morning, saying he feels “serene” with his decision and that he’s walking away feeling accomplished.
Duvernay-Tardif played six NFL seasons with the Kansas City Chiefs from 2014 to 2019. He then played parts of 2021 and 2022 with the New York Jets.
“It’s been 9 years since I’ve had the opportunity to evolve in the NFL, and sometimes I still don’t get over the opportunity to experience this adventure,” he wrote in his lengthy statement.
The offensive lineman was selected by Kansas City in the sixth round of the NFL draft in 2014 after playing at McGill University from 2010 to 2013.
The Mont-Saint-Hilaire native received his medical degree from McGill in 2018.
