I do think the 34 was just too much for an old guy with sciatica and hes better off now for retiring when he did

He said he retired because they were going to use him only as a part-time pass rush specialist.

Remember they were in a 3-4 at that point so that would mean he would see the field only when they were in a 4-man line in pass rush packages.[/quote

Yep, it's amazing that he played as well as he did at 245 lbs. as a 3-4 DE. Youngblood is synonymous with determination.

  Youngblood was forced to retire

  I think his back was fine, but I think he quit because of pride
