After suffering his second neck injury in a year, Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Ellis Hobbs is contemplating retirement, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports.

Hobbs finished 2009 on injured reserve after undergoing anterior cervical decompression and fusion surgery last December. Hobbs suffered his second neck injury after a helmet-to-helmet collision with Dave Tollefson during Sunday night's 27-17 win over the New York Giants.

X-rays were negative, but an MRI on Monday revealed an injury to a different disk.

A third-round pick (84th overall) out of Iowa State by the New England Patriots in 2005, Hobbs had 198 tackles and 9 interceptions in 63 games for the Patriots before he was traded to Philadelphia in 2009.

In 16 games for the Eagles, Hobbs has 27 tackles and an interception.

Due to the rules governing the uncapped season, Hobbs was not eligible for unrestricted free agency this past off-season and played this season under a one-year restricted free agent tender worth $2.7995 million.
