NFL's Jon Runyan To Run For Congress In NJ

(CBS) NFL player Jon Runyan says he'll retire at the end of the season and launch a campaign for Congress in New Jersey's 3rd District.

The 35-year-old offensive lineman was signed Tuesday to play the remainder of the season with the San Diego Chargers.

Runyan said in a statement that he had told Republican officials in Burlington County that he would retire after the season and seek to challenge Democratic Rep. John Adler in 2010.

Runyan has played 13 seasons in the NFL for Houston, Tennessee and Philadelphia.

Runyan was born November 27, 1973 in Flint, Michigan.
