Former Chargers center Nick Hardwick announced his retirement on Feb 2, 2015, Hardwick had been the Chargers starting center since being drafted in 2004. Hardwick went on season ending IR after a neck injury in week one and showed up at his retirement press conference looking a lot more like a futbol player than an NFL lineman.
Nick Hardwick 293 pounds in Sept. as Chargers center. Stands today, retiring at 208. Normalized calorie intake. Worked out. Great for him.

Meanwhile I have been trying to get back under 200 lbs since my freshman year of college.
