Calgary Stampeders quarterback P.J. Walker is calling it a career.
The veteran pivot informed the team of his decision to step away from professional football after nine seasons, it was announced on Thursday.
Walker, 31, signed with the Stampeders in Oct. 2024, and made 13 appearances for Calgary the following season.
The Elizabeth, N.J. native recorded 35 completions for 395 yards, two touchdowns, and four interceptions, also adding 32 yards and a score on the ground while mostly serving as a backup to Vernon Adams Jr.
Walker spent most of his years playing football south of the border with numerous stints between both the National Football League and the XFL.
Following a storied collegiate career at Temple, Walker would sign a deal with the NFL’s Indianapolis Colts in 2017 after going undrafted, and mainly spent time on Indy’s practice squad for the next two seasons.
Walker would then head to the XFL for the 2019-20 season, where he would star under centre for the Houston Roughnecks by leading the league in completions (119), passing yards (1,338), and touchdowns (15) in five games before the season was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Walker would then join the NFL’s Carolina Panthers, where he would play in four games that season.
Following three years with the Panthers, Walker also spent time with the Chicago Bears, Cleveland Browns and Seattle Seahawks from 2023-24, making nine starts and being active for 21 contests.
