Former Seattle Seahawks receiver Doug Baldwin posted a long series of tweets on Sunday indicating that he is retiring, including a “Game of Thrones” GIF reading “My watch has ended.”
Because the end of one journey sees the beginning of another. And guess what.. it will be one hell of a journey. You will feel emotional and physical pain you never knew existed. You will fail over and over again. But don’t worry, all of it will be the reason why you succeed. pic.twitter.com/RBH3hy5dip

Baldwin wanted to continue playing, but after offseason surgeries and the termination of his contract last week by the Seahawks because of a failed physical, he might not be able to do so.
Baldwin, one of the Seahawks’ best and most popular players, had surgery on his groin and shoulder this offseason.
His 2018 season included injuries to both knees, an elbow, a shoulder, a hip and his groin.
Baldwin acknowledged in December that he’s on “the downside” of his career.
