Josdin..
Thank you.

Seriously.
I don't know why, but this news REALLY bummed me out.
I thank you, Josdin, for reminding me who my favorite player should be.

Next Viking jersey I get is a number 95.

I hope through all the crap and distractions this team has been through this past offseason, that they stop and consider what's important, and use Udeze as a rallying cry.

Love you Kenechi!!

He won the most important battle, but lost the other one..

Nice try Kenechi, you worked hard and nothing more can be asked of you!

All best in the future!

This makes me really sad

This was not the retirement I was waiting to hear.
Truly a bummer.

Good luck Udeze... Skol!

I almost came into this thread to say RIP, then I remembered he didn't die.

Cheers to him and I hope that he will live a great life, just off the football field.

Thank you for your efforts on the field. You will always be a Viking.
Good luck to you and your family.

Good luck with everything. Keep your head up.

Sounds like he could be a candidate for the vikings ring of honor some day.

Sad news , health is important though , wish nothing but the best to him and his family.

Just shows that you never know whats around the corner but at least he has made good progress in the most important thing in his life.
Good luck Kenechi and here's hoping things work out well for the future for you and your family.

Lost a sister and a very good friend to this disease

I wish him and his family all the very best and I hope that his current profile will enable him to help in finding a cure for this.

Love to you and your family Kenechi
