Peter King announces retirement after 40 years of covering the NFL | Pro Football Talk | NFL on NBC

Peter, your retirement is a BIG news to many of us who grew up reading your work covering the NFL! Wish you the best of luck on your golden years.

Peter King always got that interview that other NFL Columnist couldn't get. Total pro! That's why he was able to retire on his own terms and not forced out like his "old school" comrades in the last 10 years. Congrats Peter King! From all of us.

I’ve never known football without Peter king . This is a huge deal, you’ve been around my whole life and we will miss you dearly.

[jimstevenson]

Just solid. Not flashy, never felt biased, no hot takes, well informed and connected to players and executives. His style doesn't show up much anymore.

[TomahawkChopa]

Bro. Gonna miss this man. His interviews with Andy were so wholesome and his insight sharpened by years of coverage will be missed

[danfarmer]

Congratulations Peter, my wife (Ohio Journalism Grad 74) and I have been big fans of your work. Enjoy your time away, you're the best.

The NFL without Peter King will be a new reality to adapt to. Thank you for all the years and millions of words, its been a pleasure to read them.

Iconic voice on the guy, he will be missed.

Peter Kings MMQB for Sports Illustrated was my introduction to really good quality analysis of the NFL, excellent work always. Class act. Congratulations on a life long job well done. ⭐

Thank you Peter King for the fond memories throughout the years! I can't wait to see what the future holds.

[jesselawson]

I hope we see him still. I’ve watched him on his podcast and PFT live. I’ve always enjoyed what he had to say, all the clips of him at training camp, and talking with coaches, players,
Authors etc. seems like a wonderful human being. Congratulations on a wonderful career.

[rossvoss]

Thank you Peter. Will miss your insights and most important your wisdom. It often takes a lifetime to acquire enough knowledge to gain that understanding and wisdom and I appreciate your sharing that with us!

[jackson]

[Schmidt]

Congrats, Peter....been reading you for decades...I look forward to your eventual book (confident, after a break, you will write one encompassing your terrific career with great stories)...one of the best.

[robertmercante]

I’m so sad to hear this news, I just started listening to Peter last year and he’s one of my favorites. I actually just went to the Nfl on Nbc page to see if he had a podcast this week and was sad to see that he announced retirement. Thanks for all your years of hard work Peter, and for having an impact on me during the short time I have known you. Here’s to a fantastic career and a wonderful retirement friend.

[MRoooo]

Peter King will be missed, maybe the last of the old-school sports journalists. I started reading you with the dawn on the internet (+20 years). You and Dr.Z were must reads back in the day. Amazing how much you shared over the years; hearing about your kids and even your dog made your articles special. Enjoy the best retirement!
