Armond Armstead Retires

Posted on by

The New England Patriots announced former USC defensive tackle Armond Armstead has retired. Armstead did not play last season after surgery following an undisclosed infection.

“He’s had a lot of adversity personally that he’s had to deal with – unusual compared to most other players – but he’s always had a great attitude, worked hard and really did everything we asked him to do,” Patriots coach Bill Bellichick said in a statement.

Armstead’s lawsuit against USC is currently going through the court system. He alleges team doctors gave him pain killers that caused a heart attack.

    Sorry about Armstead’s release by the Pats –

    an aside – Scott Wolf had world cup the past three weeks – no word ever about MLB – never ever.

    Well for you fellow Trojans per ESPN, the LA Angels are moving to acquire former USC pitcher Ian Kennedy (RHP) who began his MLB career w. the NYY – CJ Wilson (LHP) ‘has’ a sprained ankle but most believe he’s a bona fide ‘Hamlet’ every time he takes the mound.

  • i SHUDDER to think how much Toradol they shot Woods up with to play two seasons on a bum ankle…

        And where are today’s Peter Gent’s?……I guess the group of former NFL players suffering from post concussion syndrome, who are suing the league, are exposing the health and safety issues that continue to plague the league. …..
