Darren Sproles to retire, he was on I.R. He is 36 years old. Are running backs starting to the last longer on average than they used to or is it my imagination?
AP is 34, Frank Gore is 36, I used to seem anyone making it past 30 was rare, this year we had two over 35 and one pushing 35.

Quarterbacks lasting longer I believe has a lot to do with the fact you can't sneeze on them without drawing a flag, but running backs take pretty much the same beating they always did.
