Falcons C Newberry retires with bad knee

The Atlanta Falcons may be looking for offensive line depth after veteran Jeremy Newberry, signed by the team in June, retired. Newberry's agent, Doug Hendrickson, told The Associated Press on Tuesday the former longtime starting center for the San Francisco 49ers hurt his left knee. Hendrickson said Newberry's knee "just kind of went out on him recently when he was pushing hard to get ready for training camp." The 33-year-old Newberry was expected to provide depth at guard and center.
