Cardinals QB Kurt Warner Expected To Annouce Retirement On Friday
on Friday, according to a source with knowledge of the situation, with the star also likely to discuss future post-playing plans.
Warner, who was pounded hard several times during a playoff loss to the Saints, will retire as one of the most prolific passers of his era, and someone who led two franchises to the Super Bowl.
He performed at a Pro Bowl level again for Arizona in 2009, but also suffered another concussion and has been mulling retirement for several years now. Warner could be poised to pursue coaching or broadcasting post-retirement.
Cardinals safety Antrel Rolle discussed Warner after Wednesday’s NFC Pro Bowl practice.
“We would love for Kurt to come back but it’s going to be his decision,” Rolle said. “I’ve had five great years with Kurt and I’ll definitely miss him if he’s not there, but Kurt’s decision is going to be Kurt’s decision.”
Warner’s departure leaves former first-round pick Matt Leinart as the starter in Arizona for now. Leinart has struggled thus far in his career.
