SoSportz.com- David Garrard has decided to retire because his surgically-repaird knee is not holding up.  He texted NFL.com's Adam Schein, "Continuing to swell up after practices. Limiting what I can do." After this decision, Geno Smith chances to be the starter are looking greater and Mark Sanchez's time in New York could be extended.  Garrard finishes his nine-year career with 16,003 passing yards, 89 touchdowns, and an 85.8 QB rating.
