[p]The 33-year-old announced his retirement in a lengthy Instagram post. [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/havenstein-rob/rqmv9Uol/"]Havenstein[/a] spent his entire career with the [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/los-angeles-rams/z7hZioyR/"]Rams[/a], also being part of the team that won Super Bowl LVI (2022). [/p][p]He's coming off a season in which he played only seven games - a career low for the vet.
