Patriots' Troy Brown Announces Retirement

FOXBORO, Mass. (CBS) ― New England Patriots wide receiver Troy Brown has officially retired.

Brown made the announcement on Thursday at Gillette Stadium with his family, Head Coach Bill Belichick and team owner Robert Kraft by his side.

Brown has spent his entire career with the Patriots since he was drafted in the eighth round out of Marshall in 1993.

Brown has not played this season and in 2007, he played in one game. Brown had undergone knee surgery after the 2006 season.

His 557 catches are the first in team history and his 6,366 yards receiving are second to Stanley Morgan's 10,352.

The wide receiver played in one Pro Bowl after the 2001 season.
