WATN: Corey Simon Set to Retire

Share

The odd career of former Eagle Corey Simon will reportedly come to an end today, with news out of Tennessee that he'll retire.

Simon was a helluvan Eagle from 2000 to 2005, playing in the Eagles' 4 NFC Championship games and one Super Bowl over that run. In 2003, Simon was a Pro Bowler. After things went sour in Philly due to the Birds' front office not wanting to give Simon a long-term deal (wise personnel decision, that), Simon signed with the Colts, and a string of odd injuries and ailments have dogged him since last year. He spent the 2006 season on the non-football–injury list, and didn't get a Super Bowl ring. Simon signed with the Titans this off-season, but never regained the form we saw for those few years in Philly.
