Terron Armstead Retires After 12-Year NFL Career

The five-time Pro Bowl left tackle leaves a legacy of excellence, leadership, and resilience as the Miami Dolphins prepare for life without him.

Terron Armstead, 33, officially announced his retirement on April 5, 2025, at a party in Miami attended by former teammates and friends.
The veteran left tackle played nine seasons with the New Orleans Saints and three with the Miami Dolphins, earning five Pro Bowl selections and a second-team All-Pro nod in 2018.
Armstead's career was marked by exceptional performance despite persistent injuries, including playing through severe knee issues in 2024.
His departure leaves a significant gap on the Dolphins' offensive line, with second-year player Patrick Paul expected to step into the starting left tackle role.
Over his 12-year career, Armstead earned approximately $115 million, leaving $15.5 million on the table by retiring with two years remaining on his contract.
