Saints Pro Bowl center Max Unger retiring

NEW ORLEANS

Two people familiar with the decision say New Orleans Saints Pro Bowl center Max Unger is retiring after 10 NFL seasons.

The people spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the announcement has not been made.

The 32-year-old Unger has been New Orleans’ starting center for the past four seasons after spending his first six with Seattle.

The 6-foot-5, 305-pound Hawaii native was an AP All-Pro in 2012 and has been to the Pro Bowl three times, in 2012, 2013 and 2018. He was acquired from Seattle in a trade for tight end Jimmy Graham after the 2013 season.
