To announce his retirement, Suh shared a heartfelt message on social media, paying tribute to his late father, who he lost exactly one year ago today. It was his dad who told Suh to “let football go” before he passed, telling Ndamukong, “You’ve done everything you set out to do.”

Suh last played with the Eagles in 2022 during his 13-year NFL career as one of the league’s most physically imposing defenders.
