Professional career
As a free agent during the 2008 regular season, Retkofsky worked as a furniture mover.[1]
He was re-signed by the Steelers on October 28 after long snapper Greg Warren was placed on season-ending injured reserve. Retkofsky served as the Steelers' long snapper through the rest of the regular season and playoffs as the Steelers won Super Bowl XLIII that year. Retkofsky was waived by the Steelers on April 30, after suffering a broken shoulder from a non-football related incident.
He then played for the New York Sentinels of the United Football League.[2] Following the completion of the inaugural UFL season, Retkofsky returned to working for a moving company before being signed again by the Steelers.[2]
Retkofsky re-signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers on December 21, 2009, replacing Greg Warren for the second straight season due to a torn ACL.[3]
In 2015, he played for the Central Texas Wolf Pack of the National Public Safety Football League.
