Titans G Steve Hutchinson Retiring


Veteran guard Steve Hutchinson is calling it a career.

Hutchinson, who spent just one season with the Titans, plans to retire. He’s informed team officials of his decision. It’s a move that was expected after an injury-shortened season in 2012. In fact, plans had been in the works for weeks.

Hutchinson had two years remaining on the three-year contract he signed with the team last offseason. He was scheduled to make $4.75 million in base salary in 2013, in addition to a $500,000 roster bonus that was due later this week. The Titans save $3.75 million against the salary cap as a result of the move.

Hutchinson, 35, played the previous six seasons with the Vikings. He played his first five NFL seasons with the Seahawks.
