Former Buffalo Bills center Mitch Morse, who spent the 2024 season with the Jacksonville Jaguars, has announced his retirement. Morse played in 77 games with the Bills, starting all 77 of his regular-season appearances. 

Morse, 32, had one year remaining on a $10.5 million contract he signed a year ago in free agency.

“The things I’ll remember and cherish most about my career are the relationships and bonds I created with my teammates, both on and off of the field,” Morse said in a statement. “Nothing can replace that, and I will miss it dearly.”

The Kansas City Chiefs drafted Morse in the second round in 2015. He spent four seasons in Kansas City and five in Buffalo before landing in Jacksonville. He said wanting to play again for one of his former coaches, Doug Pederson, was a main reason he signed with the Jaguars.

Morse thanked all three of his former teams and his family and added that he looks forward to spending more time with them “as I navigate retirement.”

He started all 156 games of his NFL career, including 13 in the postseason. His career record was 98-58, including 92-51 in the regular season.
