"Hard to believe 8 seasons have come and gone," Drake wrote on . "I've loved the journey - the wins, the moments big and small, the (camaraderie), the energy, all of it. I can't say I loved everything (if you've ever done training camp in Miami you can relate lol), but certainly appreciate the lows and the grind, and know those moments grew me as a football player and more importantly as a person. Ready to enjoy a little retirement and see where the next chapter takes me. Thanks to everyone that was along for the ride with me - wouldn't change a thing."
