Former New York Giants center Shaun O’Hara has officially announced his retirement from the NFL.
The Giants let O’Hara go last season and then he had one work out with the Dolphins and then no other teams showed much interest. He held a press conference today to reflect on his long career.

O’Hara helped solidify one of the NFL’s best offensive lines during their time. I know it was only a few years ago, but they were arguably the best in the league.
