Wilfork: 'No way in the world' he's going to retire


Vince Wilfork may be 33 years old, but he's not letting the new ring on his finger determine his future as a pro.

The 12-year-vet, who just won his third Vince Lombardi trophy and is one of only two Patriots still around from his first win his rookie year, was asked Thursday if the team's most recent Super Bowl win was the last game he'll play.

The answer? An emphatic, "No."

"There's no way in the world this is my last season," he said via WEEI.com. "I've worked too hard to get back to this level. The body feels good, so I doubt if this is my last one. The things I've done in my career, where I'm headed, I still have a lot of football left in me. That's how I feel.

"I'm already looking forward to next year to see if we can do it again."
