Steve Smith Sr. has officially retired from the NFL, doing so in his own unique and humorous way. It also befitted the Baltimore Ravens wide receiver's fiery 16-year career.
Smith tweeted a picture of a letter Friday that he sent to NFL commissioner Roger Goodell, writing that he "will no longer be antagonizing defensive backs."
Smith finished a prolific career in Sunday's 27-10 loss in Cincinnati. After the game, he essentially took his final bow when he said, "I enjoyed it, but it's over and it's done."
A five-time Pro Bowl player, Smith is 12th in league history in receptions (1,028) and seventh in receiving yards (14,697).
