NFL Network's Adam Shefter reports that Jake Plummer has decided to retire in lieu of being traded to the Bucs.
Maybe Mike Shanahan should have treated him better. Denver now loses the fourth-round pick they would have picked up. Plummer never seemed like someone who "needed" football, but he's only 33 and could always re-consider in the future. Chris Simms can breathe a little easier. While the Bucs will find a veteran quarterback, he's unlikely to be as good as Plummer.
Very interesting twist.....a big FU to Shanny...sit a year then come back perhaps???
