Vince Wilfork is retiring from football, and he did it with a surprising video that starts out like a serious retirement announcement and ends with an announcement of a big party.

Big party for a big man.

Vince Wilfork was a big part of the beginning of the New England dynasty, so it’s fitting that he would end his career there. He spent his last two seasons with the Houston Texans, but as you can see in the video below, he will be holding a Farewell Tailgate on September 7 in New England.

 

Well y’all – it’s been a great run, but the time has come. @Kingsford #Sponsored

It definitely looks like Wilfork will be enjoying retirement.

There aren’t many better ways to show off a relaxed retired lifestyle than kicking it by the grill in overalls and no shirt. This is the look of a man who has played enough football in his life.
