Daunte Culpepper Finally Retires

After 9 hard fought years, Daunte Culpepper announces that he is now retired. Culpepper is former teammates with Randy moss, they had it all in Minnesota but not the best relationship. Daunte then left from the Vikings, and headed to Miami. After his year in Miami, he left for Oakland. Culpepper has always had a knee injury, and that is some of the reason why he may have retired. But again, they get paid millions of dollars so he is not in bad shape if you ask me. Daunte will probably go back to his home town, (Ocala, Florida) and become an assistant or even a head football coach in Ocala. He was always fun to watch. He wasn't the fastest but he sure could run over somebody. I think when Daunte was with the vikings, they shouldn't of let him go.

Culpepper told the media that he said he has accomplished enough and would rather just head on into other events in life. He has money now, so he told everybody he wants to sort of explore the rest of the world, which I don't think anybody blames him for what he is doing because that's why most football players do when they retire. What down fall Culpepper had he stated was that he wasn't doing the right thing as a quarterback. The job just didn't to fit him well he said. Did you know how bad his knee was? He was sacked a total number of 21 times because of his knee injury. That is how bad his knee was after he went undergo surgery and that is mainly why he did retire. Culpepper is a great guy, loves kids, family, and has done a lot for his high school coach by donating thousands of dollars to pay for new uniforms.
