Rolando McClain Retires From NFL
Posted 2 minutes ago

Amidst off-field trouble, LB Rolando McClain is leaving football at 23 years old.


Rolando McClain’s turbulent NFL career is coming to an end at the age of 23.

The Ravens placed the inside linebacker and former first-round pick on the reserve/retired list Wednesday afternoon, General Manager Ozzie Newsome announced.

“Rolando let me know that he plans to retire from the NFL,” Newsome stated. “We have placed him on the Reserve/Retired list.”

McClain signed a one-year contract with the Ravens on April 12, but was arrested just 10 days later in his hometown of Decatur, Ala. It was the latest in a string of off-field problems for McClain since entering the league in 2009 as the eighth-overall pick.

McClain was arrested in December of 2011 and charged with third-degree assault, among others.

In January, he was arrested after an officer pulled him over for a window tint violation. He reportedly pleaded guilty to that charge on May 6 and charges of providing false information were dropped, according to The Baltimore Sun.

McClain’s is due in court on July 9 for his most recent charges of disorderly conduct and resisting arrest.

McClain finishes his NFL career with 274 tackles (195 solo), 6.5 sacks, one interception, one forced fumble and 23 passes defensed in 41 career games with Oakland.

The Ravens now have one less inside linebackers, but did select Arthur Brown in the second round of the NFL draft. That leaves Brown and Jameel McClain as the likely starters, with Josh Bynes and Albert McClellan as the top contenders.

:smh:

He will probably regret that decision a few years. Who am I to say that though? Him and Titus need to figure it out. Forget their NFL careers. They're both going to end up with horrible lives is they keep heading down this path.
 
Tank Johnson was offering his and Troy Vincent's help on First Take assuming Titus makes it back to the league.

Titus' own father is pleading for assistance.

i was reading an article saying that his son had some type of issue that was aggravated by a concussion that wasnt reported.

not sure how true considering everything is blame the concussion now-a-days but interesting none the less.
 
Read the same. His father didn't recall the name of the condition, but it was dealing with the front of the head/brain if I recall correctly.

Saddest part is Titus has 1,000 yard receiver potential, and that's no joke.
