Micah Hyde officially done.

[LarryMullenJr.]

Announces his retirement today. Great career in Iowa City and the NFL.

Still love the Sean McDonough interception call with his voice cracking: “MICAH HYDE!!!”

Nice run.

Micah was a 5th round pick (#159 overall) in 2013.

Over 12 years, his career earnings: $54,700,153 ($4,558,346/year average)

Was he activated for the game yesterday?

Was he activated for the game yesterday?

Nope. He was on the practice squad. I suppose they could have activated him but I guess Buffalo felt comfortable with the safety that was concussed and his backup.

Thanks for the memories Micah. His TD return of Tyler Sash's interception and return against MSU was a thing of beauty. Two of my favorite Hawks. Hope he and his family have a blessed retirement.

As Hawkeye and life long Bills fan all I can say is thank you Micah. Awesome to watch you over the years.

 

[DewHawk]

One of my favorites and good luck MH

Congrats to Micah on a great career. One of my all time favorite Hawks!

Happy for him, a legendary Hawkeye. Would be cool if someday he makes it back to Iowa City as a coach or something.

Great career. Played in a lot of big games and was highly thought of everywhere he played.

I was upset when the Packers didn’t even offer Hyde a new contract after their playoff run.
Hyde was Mr. Do-it-all for the Packers secondary late into the season and playoffs.
He’s a great Hawk and great person. Hope he gets to enjoy retirement.

I wondered if this was it. A fantastic career!

Me too. The Pack made a mistake letting him go.

Totally agree. McDonough's call was awesome. I still get chills listening and watching that play. I was there and saw it in person. Hyde was a great Hawkeye and an oustanding player in the league. Enjoy retirement, Micah.

 

[LarryMullenJr.]

Easily...EASILY a top 5 meme of all time.

Another great play by Sash and Hyde and a great call that gives me chills every time. But it also makes me sad knowing how things ended for Tyler Sash. What a tragedy.

But I'd love to see Hyde return to Iowa City as an honorary captain in the near future.

 

[Hawkeye Marching Band]

When recruiting Cooper DeJean, the coaches told him he could be like Micah Hyde. So far, so good for that prediction.

Wish he could have gotten a ring. Stupid KC!

As a bills fan... Had heard he re-signed late in the year came out of retirement. I was hoping to see him against the Chiefs
