Two-time Pro Bowl safety Justin Simmons announced Wednesday that he is retiring from the NFL as a member of the Denver Broncos.
Simmons spent his first eight seasons with the Broncos, who selected him in the third round (98th overall) out of Boston College in 2016.
“Denver literally shaped me into the man that I am. To the best fans in the world and Broncos Country, thank you so much for all your support for both myself and my family,” Simmons said in a video posted to Instagram.
