Veteran C Jeff Saturday told WFNI-AM in Indianapolis on Friday that he will retire following Sunday’s Pro Bowl.

"That's it ... we'll finish it with sunsets in Hawaii and call it a much better career than I would have anticipated," Saturday said.

The 14-year veteran just finished his first season with the Packers. He started the first 14 games of the season and earned his sixth Pro Bowl nod, despite losing his starting job to Evan Dietrich-Smith after Week 15.

Saturday, 37, played in 211 games with 202 starts in his career. He spent 13 seasons with the Colts and started in their Super Bowl XLI win. Saturday had 10 seasons in which he started all 16 games.
