Trotter: Can Steve Smith Sr. retire while still great?

For one of the few times in his career, Steve Smith Sr. looked lost on the football field. The Ravens' late rally against the 49ers had stalled 35 yards from the goal line, leaving them with a fifth loss in six games and Smith wandering aimlessly across the middle of the field. With the sun setting over Levi's Stadium, he stopped a couple of times to talk with friends. He paused to take a picture with a well-wisher. He knelt at the 50-yard line for a brief group prayer.

Then he rose to his feet and looked around awkwardly.
