Rich Gannon To Retire

Star Tribune - Oakland quarterback Rich Gannon is going to retire from football.

Gannon was the NFL's Most Valuable Player in 2002 when he led the Raiders to the Super Bowl. He broke a vertebra in his neck early last season on a goal line play against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

"I have that neck injury and it's not going to be wise for me not to play any more football," he said Sunday. "I am flying out to California [today] to see the doctor who has treated me for the injury." [READ]
