Two days before players will report to training camp veteran safety Glenn Earl has informed the Bears of his intention to retire from the NFL.
Earl considered his future over the course of the past week before making it official Tuesday.
"He's decided to hang it up," Earl's agent Craig Domann said. "He's been dealing with some injuries since he came out of Notre Dame. I think he felt like it was time to move on."

Just 28.
Btw, picks taken soon after Casserly's home run swing and miss on Earl (if he wasn't injured, he'd woulda been a second rounder, you see?) include Jared Allen and Antonio Smith, among others.
