Big-hitting safety John Lynch's crunching collisions are over.
Lynch has decided to retire, officially ending his career with a news conference Monday in Tampa, Fla.

The 37-year-old was a nine-time Pro Bowler for Denver and Tampa Bay, finishing with 1,277 tackles, 100 pass breakups and 26 interceptions in 224 regular-season games.

Lynch made it known that there was a price to pay for coming over the middle -- a painful pounding.

"He made a name for himself with (big hits)," said safety Marlon McCree, whose emergence in Denver eventually led to Lynch bolting the Broncos. "That's the type of player he was."
