Schwartz announced his retirement Thursday via his personal Twitter account.
ANALYSIS
Schwartz's decision comes after he sat out the entire 2021 season while recovering from back surgery. The 33-year-old offensive tackle suggested in his post that his back has responded well to rehab, though he's opting to preserve his long-term health by walking away from the sport. A four-time All-Pro selection, Schwartz began his career in 2012 as a second-round pick with the Browns and then joined the Chiefs ahead of the 2016 season before being released following Kansas City's loss to Tampa Bay in Super Bowl LV.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
No clarity about return date
OTKansas City Chiefs
December 22, 2020
The Chiefs do not know if Schwartz will be able to return from his back injury in time for the playoffs, according to Herbie Teope of The Kansas City Star
ANALYSIS
Chiefs coach Andy Reid said Schwartz is "making progress," but that he will allow the medical staff to determine a realistic return date for the offensive lineman. Reid said he didn't know whether he'll be ready for the playoffs though, which would begin in a few weeks for Kansas City if they hang onto the No. 1 seed in the AFC.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2015
2014
2013
2012
Schwartz is projected to be the starting right tackle for the Browns in 2015.
Schwartz is projected to start at right tackle for the Browns in 2014.
Schwartz will return as the starting right tackle for the Browns in 2013. He started all 16 games as a rookie last season.
While many thought the Browns would be taking a receiver, or even perhaps a higher rated lineman, they decided on Schwartz with the 37th pick of April's draft. He has experience playing both left and right tackle at the University of California, and he is expected to start from Day One. He has NFL bloodlines as his older brother Geoff plays tackle for the Vikings, is know for having solid technique, has prototypical size, and should be an immediate upgrade over the right tackles the Browns have been trotting out the last few seasons. His addition should be a slight boost to running back Trent Richardson and quarterback Brandon Weeden.
