Curry will announce his retirement from professional football Thursday in a ceremony during the Eagles' game against the Commanders, Andrew DiCecco of InsideTheBirds.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
A second-round selection of the Eagles in the 2012 NFL Draft, Curry spent seven of his 10 NFL seasons in Philadelphia. He also had stints with the Buccaneers and most recently with the Jets, with whom he spent the 2022 season. He'll end his career with 209 tackles (150 solo), including 32.5 sacks, five forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries across 134 games. The defensive end won his lone Super Bowl title as a member of the Eagles during the 2017 season.

Curry (elbow) was able to log a full practice Wednesday, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Curry was unable to play in Sunday's loss to the Seahawks due to the injury. However, it appears he's fully recovered and should take the field Sunday against the Dolphins.

Curry (elbow) is inactive Sunday against the Seahawks.
EDGE Analysis
Curry closed out the week with a limited practice Friday, but he's still not well enough to suit up. His absence will weaken the Jets' depth on the edges, as well as on special teams.

Curry (hamstring) was activated from injured reserve Saturday and will play in Sunday's game against the Packers, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Curry hasn't appeared in game action since 2020, as he missed the 2021 season with an illness. He's also been absent from the first four games of the Jets' current campaign due to a hamstring injury. He'll likely be on a limited snap count but should occupy a rotational role along the defensive line.

The Jets have designated Curry (hamstring) for a return to practice Wednesday, Ethan Greenberg of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Curry will now have a 21-day window to be evaluated at practice, while the Jets can fully activate him at any time. The veteran defensive end hasn't appeared in a game since 2020, and it remains to be seen if he'll handle more than a depth role when fully healthy.

The Jets placed Curry (hamstring) on injured reserve Thursday, Ethan Greenberg of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Curry initially signed with the Jets in March of 2021 but missed the entire season after being placed on the reserve/NFI list at the end of August. He'll now be forced to miss at least the first four games of the 2022 campaign due to a hamstring issue that's lingered since the beginning of training camp. The 2012 second-round pick has totaled 32.5 sacks and 194 tackles across 123 career games, but it's uncertain how productive he'll be after not appearing in a game for over a year.

Curry (hamstring) was not present at practice Wednesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's a discouraging sign for Curry, who already hasn't seen game action since 2020 thanks to complications that cropped up after a surgery he underwent to remove his spleen before last season. Once he's able to return from the hamstring issue he's now dealing with, he'll compete for a depth role at defensive end behind Carl Lawson and John Franklin-Myers.

Curry (illness) re-signed with the Jets on Wednesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Curry signed a one-year deal with the Jets last offseason, but he missed all of 2021 due to developing blood clots after having surgery to remove his spleen. The 33-year-old veteran last played in 2020 with the Eagles, where he recorded 16 tackles and three sacks in 11 contests. He'll work to help the Jets pass rush, which was near the bottom of the league with just 33 sacks last season.

Curry (illness) was waived off the reserve/non-football injury list by the Jets on Friday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Curry underwent surgery to remove his spleen in July and developed blood clots after the surgery. He was ruled out for the 2021 season on Aug. 25. Though expected to make a full recovery and return to the field in 2022, the nine-year veteran may be doing so for a team other than the Jets.

Curry is ruled out for the 2021 season after having undergone surgery to address a blood disorder, the New York Daily News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Curry developed blood clots after initially undergoing surgery to remove his spleen back in July, and he ultimately required blood thinners as part of his treatment. The ninth-year veteran said he expects to fully recover and retake the field in 2022, which is certainly positive news, but for the 2021 campaign, his absence will be a notable blow for New York's defensive front.
