Super Bowl-winning punter Dustin Colquitt signed a ceremonial one-day contract with Kansas City this week to retire from the NFL as a Chief.

Colquitt, 43, has not made an appearance since the 2021 season, when he featured five times during a brief stint with the Cleveland Browns.

The former Tennessee star played 15 of his 17 seasons with the Chiefs, winning a Super Bowl in the 2019 campaign and earning Pro Bowl selections in 2012 and 2016.

He also still holds the franchise record for most games played after racking up 238 appearances for Kansas City.

Colquitt averaged 44.8 yards in punting 1,198 times for 53,660 yards in 255 regular-season games, with 103 touchbacks and 483 boots inside the 20-yard line. He had six blocked.

The Chiefs selected him with the 99th overall pick in the third round of the 2005 NFL Draft out of Tennessee, before he went on to enjoy a 15-year run as Kansas City’s starting punter.

After his successful spell at Arrowhead Stadium, the Knoxville-born player also spent time with the Pittsburgh Steelers (2020), Jacksonville Jaguars (2020), Atlanta Falcons (2021) and then the Browns (2021).

Colquitt took part in one last practice as a Chief on Wednesday, with the team sharing footage of him kicking a final punt during OTA practice. 

‘Fun to be back, got a lot of changed faces. I think there’s five or six guys left on that team [that I played with],’ he said in a press conference after the session.

‘I love being in this building. I shared with them [the players] the first time I was not employed and played here, I would still make that drive and get on [Route] 150 highway and be like, “Oh yeah I don’t work there anymore.” Which is a good thing ’cause I got to be in these halls for a long time.’

A number of Colquitt’s former teammates also took to social media to pay tribute to him, including Travis Kelce.

‘THE LEFT FOOT LEGEND! Chief forever!!’ Kelce wrote while reacting to Colquitt’s retirement.
