Former OL Charles Leno announces his retirement

Details
14 October 2025

Former NFL offensive lineman Charles Leno Jr. announced his retirement on Tuesday.

His announcement came two years to the day after his wife, Jen, miscarried their fourth daughter, Paitynn, at the exact time (2:46 p.m.). Leno learned of her miscarriage while he was in Atlanta for a Commanders game against the Falcons.

He did not play.

"That day changed everything for me," Leno wrote in an Instagram post. "It changed the way I see life, the way I carry myself and most of all, it changed what matters most to me."

The Bears selected Leno in the seventh round of the 2014 draft. He spent seven years with the Bears before they traded him to Washington.

The Commanders released him in the 2024 offseason, and he did not play last season.

Leno, 34, started 141 games at left tackle and played in 149.

He was selected to the Pro Bowl in 2018.

The Colts needed a third quarterback after placing Anthony Richardson on injured reserve this week. They got one on Tuesday.

The Colts are signing Brett Rypien to their practice squad, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN reports.

Rypien, 29, joined the Bengals' practice squad in late August, and they elevated him to the active roster as Jake Browning’s backup after Joe Burrow went on season-ending injured reserve. The Bengals released Rypien last week after trading for Joe Flacco.

Rypien has appeared in 11 games with four starts with the Broncos, Rams and Bengals since 2020. He signed with Denver as an undrafted rookie in 2019.

He is 98-of-168 for 950 yards with four touchdowns and nine interceptions.

Richardson fractured an orbital bone in his eye after a pregame accident with a resistance band on Sunday.
