Jake Plummer to Retire Rather than Go to Bucs

Jake Plummer says he may retire rather than start over with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, to whom he has been traded.
In a twist that could scuttle a proposed trade to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, veteran quarterback Jake Plummer told friends and business associates Friday afternoon that he plans to retire from football, rather than to continue his NFL career in another city.
ESPN.com reported Friday morning that the Denver Broncos had reached agreement in principle on most of the elements of a trade that would send Plummer to the Bucs, where he would compete with Chris Simms for the starting job.
A man making millions for being a mediocre quarterback should stick around.
