FILE - Cleveland Browns cornerback Joe Haden practices before an NFL football game against the New York Jets, on Oct. 30, 2016, in Cleveland. Haden has a formal NFL retirement date. The three-time Pro Bowl cornerback told The Associated Press he is planning to sign a one-day contract with Cleveland on Oct. 30 2022, so he can retire as a member of the team that drafted him in the first round in 2007.  The Browns will honor the 33-year-old Haden a day later during their home game against Cincinnati on Monday Night Football.
