Chrebet says he'll retire

December 22, 2005 Send To A Friend  | Print View

New York Jets receiver Wayne Chrebet, who became a licensed Standardbred trainer earlier this year, said Thursday his football career was over, one month after sustaining a season-ending concussion.



Chrebet spent 11 seasons with the Jets after signing as an undrafted free agent out of Hofstra Universeity, but was plagued with head injuries the last few seasons. Though he was small for a football player at 5-foot-10, he was regarded as a clutch possession receiver, working his way up the team record charts.



He ends his career with 580 receptions, second to Don Maynard's 627 on the team list. Chrebet made his first appearance at the Jets' facility Thursday since he was hurt Nov. 6 against San Diego. His impromptu comments confirmed the expected.



Chrebet races horses under the name of Double Down Stable. His performers have included the stakes-winning trotters Southwind Elian and Hurri Kane Billy G.
