Free agent Chad Pennington is leaning toward retirement. Pennington was out of the league in 2011, working as a commentator for Fox's NFL coverage, after tearing his ACL in an offseason basketball game. Turning 36 in June, Pennington plans to continue broadcasting as opposed to entering the coaching ranks.

Free agent Chad Pennington will work as a color commentator for Fox's NFL coverage this season. Set to turn 35 on June 26, Pennington is not officially retiring, but is planning to take the entire 2011 season off as he rehabs from both shoulder and knee injuries. If he isn't convinced to put on a helmet this fall, it's likely we've seen the last of his playing days.
