Former All-Pro Tarik Cohen Retires

Thursday, August 1, 1:10 PM

New York Jets running back and kick returner Tarik Cohen has announced his retirement. Despite having a promising training camp and expressing optimism about his return, Cohen has decided to step away from the game. Known for his standout performance as an All-Pro returner with the Bears in 2018, Cohen's career was significantly impacted by injuries. His last NFL game was in 2020 after he suffered a severe leg injury and torn knee ligaments. Cohen also endured an Achilles' tear in the spring of 2022. Though he hoped the new kickoff rules would help him secure a spot on the 53-man roster, something changed his decision. Drafted by the Bears in the fourth round in 2017 from North Carolina A&T, Cohen finished his career with 2,676 scrimmage yards, 14 touchdowns, 985 punt return yards (including one touchdown), and 628 kickoff return yards. He spent most of his NFL career with the Bears, with a brief stint on the Carolina Panthers practice squad last season.

Damien Williams Released By Cardinals

Friday, November 10, 9:18 AM

Arizona Cardinals running back Damien Williams (foot) has been released by the organization with an injury settlement. This doesn't come as a surprise with James Conner (knee) expected to make his return this week. That means, Williams short lived time with the Cardinals is coming to an end. This season, Williams has totaled 43 yards on 11 carries and was held without a score. It's uncertain if the 31-year-old will get a chance elsewhere, but he's not expected to have fantasy value even he signs with another team.
