Chargers C Nick Hardwick on retirement decision: 'I told them I expect to play next season'
San Diego Chargers center Nick Hardwick isn't ready to call it a career just yet.
"I told them I expect to play next season," Hardwick told U-T San Diego Saturday. "I'm excited about it."
The 32-year-old will be embarking on his 11th professional season in 2014 and will be playing in the final year of his current three-year deal.
Hardwick had significant concussion and neck issues last season.
