Miami Dolphins tackle Terron Armstead announced his retirement over the weekend - and he continues to show class as people react.
Miami Dolphins tackle Terron Armstead announced his retirement over the weekend, ending a 12-year NFL career. A five-time Pro Bowl selection, Armstead handled himself with class throughout his career. He was selected in the third round of the 2013 season, and, while injuries would shorten each season of his career, Armstead proved to be a franchise left tackle during his nine years with the New Orleans Saints and three with the Dolphins. As he heads into retirement, the class he demonstrated throughout his career continues into his posts on Instagram and X.
Armstead started 131 games during his career and his impact on the offensive line cannot be questioned. He locked down the left tackle position for both the Saints and the Dolphins any time he was on the field. He battled to be in on every play possible, even when he was clearly not 100 percent healthy, and his presence immediately upgraded the offensive line.
Today we take a look at Armstead’s recent posts on both IG and X. While every player makes statements and announcements on social media when they retire, something about Armstead’s feels more personal than most.
