Baltimore Ravens offensive tackle Jonathan Ogden has hinted he may retire.

Ogden, an 11-time Pro Bowl selection, is contemplating his future because of a hyperextended big toe which has yet to heal properly.

"I have not officially retired, but the Ravens know to proceed with their off-season plans as if I'm retiring," Ogden told the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

"It's just frustrating because I couldn't play, especially this last year, at the level that I'm used to playing at, and that kind of irritates me," he added.

"I'm a perfectionist out there on the football field and that's kind of why I'm leaning toward retiring."

Ogden, who stands at 6ft 9in and weighs almost 345lbs, was the fourth overall selection in the 1996 draft and has spent his entire 12-season professional career with the Ravens, including a Super Bowl victory in 2001.
