The league’s oldest defender Terrence Newman signed a one-year short contract with the Minnesota Vikings on Monday. One day later, Newman said that the 2018 season was the last year of his career.
"I think this may be my last season." Newman said, "Once I reach this age, I will consider many issues. I must figure out what I want. I think this is my last year, no matter what happens. May not shake my determination."
On Monday, the Vikings announced that they would renew Newman for another year. It is worth noting that after James Harrison announced his retirement in April, Newman became the oldest defensive player in the league. The 15 year old veteran of the league will welcome his 40th birthday on September 4th this year.
Newman is not only the oldest defensive player, but the 2003 first-round show is the second only to Tom Brady, who turned 41 in August. Of course, this would have to exclude the group of special secrets from the special group. If counting special teams, Newman’s age is ranked 7th in the league today, ranked in Adam-Viatitli (45), Philippines. - Dawson (43), Matt - Bryant (coming soon 43), Sean - Lechler (coming soon 42) and Sebastian - Djenikowsky (40).
Newman decided to wait another year, which is probably because he likes and is very suitable for the mentor Mike - Chimo's defensive system, in Newman's 15 years in the league battle, including 9 seasons for the Dallas Cowboys (2003-11) Then he played for the Cincinnati Tigers (2012-15) for three years. In 2015, Newman came to the Vikings as an important rotation player.
In the past few years, Newman played an important role in the defense of the Vikings. Last year, 39-year-old Newman played 555 files, which ranked third in the Vikings Corner Guard. In addition to the corner guards, Qimo also sometimes asked him to play security because of his age and tactical requirements. In the three years he worked for the Vikings, Newman has almost never missed any game. In his career, Newman's attendance rate is also astonishingly high. The reason why the team kept the veteran in the account, but also because Newman as the team leader often teaches young players experience, the young second-line defense of the team, like Xavier - Rhodes, Tel - Waynes and The rapid growth of Mackenzie-Alexander is inextricably linked with Newman's teachings.
Regarding retirement, Newman said he had no special plan in the final season: "I have passion for 15 years in the league and it's time to go through the gap. It took me a day and I know that my career is coming to an end. There's nothing special about me. I'll still treat it as usual, try to complete the defensive mission, help young people grow, work hard to make themselves better, and make the team better."
Maybe it was the persistence of the Super Bowl that Newman decided to fight for another year. The veteran has never boarded the NFL's biggest stage since he entered the league. Last year, the Vikings entered the National League final and was the closest he ever had to the Super Bowl. Unfortunately, he eventually fell to the feet of the eagle and missed the trophy.
