A one-time Pro Bowler and a one-time Super Bowl champion, Kansas City Chiefs fullback Anthony Sherman is flying off into the sunset of retirement.
Sherman, a 10-year ¹ú²úÍâÁ÷Íøveteran, announced his retirement Thursday in a video he posted on Twitter.
"Kansas City, thanks for all the memories,'' Sherman, 32, said in the video. "It's been a great run: Eight years, Super Bowls. But it's on to the next chapter.''
Donned in deputy sheriff gear and with a hashtag of #deputysheriff, Sherman seemed to indicate his future lies in law enforcement.
Drafted by the Cardinals in the fifth round of the 2011 ¹ú²úÍâÁ÷ÍøDraft, the UConn product played his initial two seasons with the Cards before settling into Kansas City, where he was a mainstay as a special teams player and fullback after arriving via trade.
Sherman was known as "the Sausage" after Chiefs head coach Andy Reid tabbed him "" following a 36-yard touchdown catch-and-run hauled in from Patrick Mahomes to open the 2018 season against the Chargers. Often sporting a mohawk, Sherman was a Chiefs fan favorite.
Sherman earned a 2018 Pro Bowl selection and helped the Chiefs to a Super Bowl victory in the 2019 season.
Over his career, Sherman tallied 625 scrimmage yards and five total touchdowns along with 68 tackles, five forced fumbles and three fumble recoveries.
