Bryan Stork: Will walk away from pro football

Stork announced Tuesday via his personal Twitter account that he would step away from professional football.

Stork, 26, declined to officially label his decision as a retirement, but for at least the time being, it sounds like he has no intention of playing after having suffered from multiple concussions during his career. The former fourth-round pick played two seasons with the Patriots before being released from the team last August. He started 17 of the 21 career games in which he played.
