Ben Roethlisberger announced his retirement Thursday morning after 18 seasons as the starting quarterback of the Pittsburgh Steelers.

In a video posted to his Twitter account, Roethlisberger announced:

"The journey has been exhilarating, fueled by a spirit of competition. Yet the time has come to clean out my locker, hang up my cleats and continue to be all I can be to my wife and children. I retire from football a truly grateful man."

Roethlisberger finished a likely Hall of Fame career with two Super Bowl wins, Rookie of the Year honors and the fifth-most passing yards (64,088) in NFL history.

The Pro Football Hall of Fame announced that Roethlisberger will be eligible for selection in 2027.
