Joe Haden will sign a one-day contract to retire as a member of the Steelers, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter, and the cornerback will be honored during Thursday's Pittsburgh-Cleveland game, a matchup of the two teams he played for in his 12-year NFL career.
Haden's agent, Drew Rosenhaus, confirmed Haden's decision to retire to Schefter.
Haden, 33, had spent the 2017 to 2021 seasons with the Steelers after he was released by the Browns. He had served as a steady presence in the Steelers' secondary, starting 66 games and racking up 10 interceptions during his time in Pittsburgh.
He dealt with a foot injury last season, missed five games and did not record an interception.
In his NFL career, Haden made 148 starts and totaled 615 tackles, 29 interceptions and two touchdowns. He was selected to three Pro Bowls.
