Quarterback Greg McElroy announced via Twitter on Friday that he is retiring from the NFL.
McElroy, 25, was a seventh-round draft choice of the New York Jets in 2011 out of Alabama. He appeared in two games with the Jets in 2012, completing 19 of 31 passes for 214 yards with one touchdown and one interception.
McElroy made some news after the 2011 season when he said the Jets’ locker room is full of “extremely selfish individuals.”
McElroy is currently on the Cincinnati Bengals’ roster.
