After seven strong seasons with the Buffalo Bills, former Packers safety Micah Hyde will retire from the NFL. In Green Bay, he's 'one that got away'

As expected, Buffalo Bills safety Micah Hyde announced his retirement following the loss in the AFC championship game. Hyde, a 34-year-old former fifth-round pick from the University of Iowa, re-joined the Bills in December of this season to serve in more of an advisory role for the stretch run.

Former Green Bay Packers defensive back Micah Hyde is retiring from the NFL after 12 seasons. Hyde told Jay Skurski of The Buffalo News that he is retiring from the game and his playing career is over following the Bills exit from the postseason.

Drafted by the Green Bay Packers in the fifth round of the 2013 NFL Draft, Hyde spent most of his career with the Buffalo Bills.

Bills safety Micah Hyde says he is retiring. Hyde was a key member of the Bills’ secondary from 2017-23, teaming with Jordan Poyer over that time to form the best safety tandem in franchise history.
