Report: Randy Moss to Retire

Photo

Adam Schefter is reporting that Randy Moss has decided to retire. It looks like the market for Moss was pretty much non-existent after the New York Jets signed Plaxico Burress. The Jets were pretty much the only team that had expressed any interest in Moss.  Moss's agent, Joel Segal (also CJ's agent), told Schefter, "After weighing his options and contemplating offers, he's decided to retire."

The good news here is that Randy Moss does retire as a Tennessee Titan.

In all seriousness, Moss was one of my favorite players when I was in high school and was one of the most exciting players to watch in this generation. I will never forget how mad I was when the then Tennessee Oilers passed on him in the draft and took a different receiver.

I will also never forget what ended up being the most fun week in MCM history. I was so pumped when the Titans were awarded Moss off waivers, and I watched the One Clap video, which is posted after the jump, at least 100 times before he every played a down for the Titans. My two year old ran around saying "straight cash homey" for a month.

Exactly.

He retired as a Titan, so you can still wear Moss jerseys!

Randy Moss was never a Titan.

Didnt you guys see how he was never on the field cause Britt and him play the same position.

wow I thought for sure a team would had decided to re-sign him and even his agents was saying he was in the best shape he has ever been but I guess no team suit his interest

What happens to a dream deferred?
Does it dry up
Like a raisin in the sun?
Or fester like a sore--
And then run?
Does it stink like rotten meat?
Or crust and sugar over--
like a syrupy sweet?
Maybe it just sags
like a heavy load.
Or does it explode?-langton Hughes

yeah I agree with Jimmy and Cary shutting down the other teams WR’s, they’ll make anybody rushing the QB look good - Jaz

I'm so embarrassed

I was a fool running around when they signed him. I thought we were going to the ship

All that means to me is frustration

I was as stoked as anyone when we got him but all he did for us was practice. When he goes into the HOF (as he will the first year they let him) and they list his teams and we are listed I will shake my head knowing how pointless his time with us was and how we did nothing but waste his talent.

people will remember Moss as a Titan

like they remember Jerry Rice as a Seahawk.

JF ruined Moss!

Don’t see why we won’t just resign him, he wasn’t the issue it was the coaching staff!

He should’ve retired a Viking. But Childress, that imbecile, kicked him out. Wilf was pissed, and it’s why Childress is no longer coach, the last straw. I hope Childress never works in the NFL again.

Hockeymetricians, they're ever so pious. Are they doing real science or confirming their bias?

81 or 84

Hell of a ride.

Put your 84 jerseys up

Safe travels, Randy Moss. Possibly my 2nd favorite WR of all time after Sterling Sharpe.
