Matt Breida Retires: End of a 7-Season NFL Career

Veteran running back Matt Breida has decided to end his NFL career after seven seasons, according to sources. The Miami Dolphins recently requested a training session with Breida, but the player declined the offer. At 30 years old, Breida ends his professional stage with a record of 2,652 rushing yards and nine career touchdowns in 98 games. During his career, he defended the colors of the San Francisco 49ers, the Miami Dolphins, the Buffalo Bills and the New York Giants. In addition to his running performance, Breida added 120 receptions for 935 yards and six receiving touchdowns.

His most outstanding season was in 2018 with the 49ers, where he accumulated 1,075 yards and five touchdowns in 14 games (13 as a starter). Breida was at training camp last year with the 49ers, but was released before the start of the season and did not participate in any games during the campaign.
