Jordan Huff Retires, Launches Safety Startup

0:00It's March 29th, I'm Cory with the story, and this is NFL News Today, your AI-powered football briefing. Jordan Huff just hung up his cleats after six solid NFL seasons, calling a quits at a young age to dive into entrepreneurship. Undrafted back in 2020, he bounced from the jets to the Eagles before landing with the 49ers this past season, reuniting with his old. Coach Robert Salah, his career, tally, 24 sacks, 62 quarterback hits, and 26 tackles for loss numbers, that scream impact player. Now he's launching Naverstone, a startup building safety gear for lithium battery systems and everything from EVs to critical infrastructure. He and his brother have been grinding on this for two and a half years, and it's gaining real traction. Huff says he crunched the numbers with his team and felt this was the move to save lives, shield companies, and push society forward. At his age, he sees it as prime time to master the founder game and build something lasting. For the 49ers, it's a gut punch on defense.

Need more moves to get that edge rushing right heading into next season.
