Harrison announces his retirement: Two-time Pro Bowl safety Rodney Harrison announced his retirement on Wednesday, saying he is through hitting quarterbacks after a 15-year career for the New England Patriots and San Diego Chargers. The 36-year-old Harrison holds the NFL record for defensive backs with 30 1/2 sacks; he also has 34 interceptions, making him the only player to have at least 30 of each. But the numbers only tell part of the story about a player who had a reputation as one of the hardest hitters in the league - and one of the dirtiest, too. Harrison won two Super Bowls with the Patriots but missed the last 10 games last season after tearing a muscle in his right thigh. Injuries, along with a four-game suspension in 2007 for using a banned substance, limited him to 31 games over the last four seasons.

Fantasy Analysis

In 15 NFL seasons, Harrison racked up 1,227 total tackles, 30.5 sacks, 34 interceptions, 114 passes defensed and two touchdowns. He will best be remembered as one of Fantasy Football's hardest hitters and tackle producers, which made him a No. 1 option from 1996 to 2004.

SS Rodney Harrison announced his retirement on June 3, and said he didn't plan to consider returning down the road. "I don't want guys on my team or guys I've played with to have to answer questions about Rodney Harrison's return. When I made my decision to retire, I made my decision to retire. I want to walk away from the game. There is a point in time where we all have to walk away from the game and I just thought it would be very disrespectful for me to come back and forth and not make my decision. "I am done and I am very much so at peace with that," Harrison insisted. "Football has been good to me. I've worked hard. I've played hard. I've done some things that I never dreamt I could do and now it's time to move forward to the next phase of my life. I respect people in National Football League enough not to put them on this joy ride -- the back and forth, the ups and downs of am I coming back and will I not come back? I am done and I am always going to be a fan of football." 64//2009
