London Fletcher Announces Retirement

Thank You London!

Heck of a career. Should be in the Hall someday.

any link or anything I can't information about it?

Live presser right now on redskins.com

class act, love this guy and his passion. I will never forget his December on that playoff march last year. Amazing

So he had a press conference to say he's 99% sure he would retire? I get the feeling this was partly done to take the heat off everything else that is going on right now

So Smoot, you're saying there's a chance?

Heck of a career. Should be in the Hall someday.

Yes, Fletcher is a Hall of Fame-worthy player. He went undrafted and is undersized, but he has had a great career. His character and consistency are second to none.

London numbers are comparable to Ray Lewis.

Welcome to the HOF London!

Great player. He did some amazing things here in DC. I like that he's retiring before he becomes a huge liability just to keep his consecutive game streak alive.

I think we'll really need to evaluate our defensive scheme with him leaving. I honestly don't know where we're going to find decent LBs for the 3-4 to be effective here in DC. I like the idea of moving Orakpo to DE. Running Kerrigan, Riley, and Rob Jackson at LB.
