"Veteran defensive tackle La'Roi Glover is retiring after 13 NFL seasons. Glover, who turns 35 on July 4, spent the past three seasons with the St. Louis Rams. He was not re-signed following the 2008 season, when he had 30 tackles only one-half sack (Sportsline)."
He is all washed up, but Glover was one of my favorite players growing up. He used to always win the bench press competition for offensive and defensive lineman, and was just a beast in the middle for a long time. Glover had 627 tackles and 83.5 sacks for his career. He led the NFL with 17 sacks for the Saints in 2000, which is extremely rare for a defensive tackle to lead the entire NFL in sacks. He didn't win a Super Bowl, but I think he still has a very good shot at making the Hall Of Fame.
