Ravens RG Marshal Yanda announced his retirement.
Baltimore's third-round pick in 2007, Yanda hangs up his cleats as one of only three guards in NFL history to earn at least eight Pro Bowls and a Super Bowl victory, joining Larry Allen and Alan Faneca among that exclusive list. Having played all 13 seasons with the Ravens, Yanda, 35, will also be remembered alongside Hall of Fame LT Jonathan Ogden as one of the most important offensive linemen in franchise history. Yanda's retirement creates $7 million in cap space as well as a glaring hole at right guard.
Yanda said following Saturday's loss to the Titans that he will take his time determining if he'll play next season, Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports reports.
Yanda heads into the offseason as a free agent and has been with the Ravens since he was drafted by the team in 2007. Many of his teammates believe that Saturday was the veteran's final game, however, it will be on Yanda's time to provide a definitive update on his future in the NFL.
Yanda (coach's decision) won't play in Sunday's game against the Steelers, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
Yanda was named to his eighth Pro Bowl in nine seasons this year. Since the Ravens have locked up the No. 1 playoff seed in the AFC, Yanda will take a week of rest. Either James Hurst or Patrick Mekari will start at right guard in Yanda's place.
Yanda (foot) wasn't listed on Wednesday's injury report.
Yanda missed the final three preseason games, but it appeared that was a precaution for the veteran guard. Expect Yanda to suit up as Baltimore's starting right guard Sunday.
