The Quiet Ones

Offensive linemen don't get the credit and notoriety they deserve. When they retire, it's often done quietly.Alan Franeca stated prior to the 2010 season that he would retire at its conclusion.

He was an eight-time All-Pro at guard and was a Pro Bowl starter from 2001-2009. He played for the Steelers, Jets and finished his career with the Cardinals. It was amazing that he finished his career with a consecutive game streak of 144, considering the violent nature of his position.
