Offensive guard John Moffitt, who abruptly retired from the NFL in 2013 at age 27, is planning to make a comeback after battling drug issues.

FOX Sports’ Jay Glazer said Wednesday that the now 28-year-old Moffitt, who has been training with him, has decided to unretire.

The Denver Broncos, who still owned his rights, waived Moffitt from the reserve/retired list on Wednesday. He will be subject to the waiver process because Moffitt had fewer than four years of service when he retired. If unclaimed, he will become a free agent.

Moffitt, who was the No. 75 overall pick in the 2011 NFL Draft out of Wisconsin, started 15 games at guard for the Seattle Seahawks in 2011 and 2012. The Broncos acquired him on Aug. 20. Moffitt played in two games for Denver before retiring.

—The Jacksonville Jaguars signed third-round guard A.J. Cann.

Cann’s deal is expected to be worth about $3 million, including an $800,000 signing bonus.

That puts all of the Jaguars’ draft picks under contract as the team fields a minicamp this week.

Cann, who started 51 games at South Carolina, is competing at left guard against veteran Zane Beadles as the Jaguars seek to improve a line that gave up a franchise-record 71 sacks last season. The team also signed veteran right tackle Jermey Parnell and center Stefen Wisniewski.

—Hall of Fame quarterback Bart Starr has undergone experimental treatment using stem cells to help with his failing health.

The Green Bay Packers great has been recovering from two strokes and a heart attack that he suffered last year.

Starr, 81, played 16 seasons in Green Bay and led the Packers to the first two Super Bowl championships. He was the Packers’ coach from 1975 to 1983.

—The late Dave Goldberg, who spent 41 years at the Associated Press, including 25 as the wire service’s lead NFL writer, has been selected as the 2015 Dick McCann Award winner by the Professional Football Writers of America.

Goldberg, the 47th McCann Award winner, is the second member of the AP to receive the McCann Award, joining Jack Hand, who was honored in 1976.

Goldberg died on Feb. 8 at the age of 73 in Mount Kisco, N.Y., from complications following hip surgery.
