Anthony Barr has had a terrific NFL career as a linebacker for the Minnesota Vikings and Dallas Cowboys over a 10-year career. He totaled 371 solo tackles in that span and made four Pro Bowls.
And now, the 33-year-old and UCLA alum will be calling it a career according to a post from his foundation, Raise the Barr: “After an amazing ten-year career, Anthony Barr will officially retire from the NFL in just a few weeks. From the start, he used his platform not just to play, but to build Raise The Barr, turning his success on the field into real impact for families like his.”
What’s not listed in that post (see below) is why he retired. But if we’re guessing, 10 years of punishing tackles and physicality can take its toll on a 33-year-old. He only played four games in 2023 and last played all 16 contests in 2017.
