Steve Smith, Sr. confirms on Mike & Mike that 2015 will be his last season

Yesterday reports rang out that the “Debo” of receivers Steve Smith, Sr. would be hanging up his cleats at end of the 2015 season. Which came at a slight shock because of how well he played during 2014, Smith had 79 receptions, 1,065 yards and 6 touchdowns.

While riding to work this morning Mike & Mike had the Ravens receiver on to confirm he was hanging the cleats up after the season. During the interview Smith seemed to be at peace with his decision stating he already had a trip set up during the off-season during prime training months.

Smith is one of the most dynamic, physical receivers I’ve ever seen and adding on he’s only 5’9” (and that’s the media height) that makes what he has accomplished that much more special.

During 14 seasons Smith as racked up 915 receptions, 13,262 yards and 73 touchdown, he also was a prominent member on special teams in his early days with the Panthers with 6 total touchdown via punt and kick return.

Smith is one of those cats who you had to respect and if you didn’t respect him he wouldn’t hesitate to pull your card.

I hope you are able to have a great 2015 Steve Smith, Sr. #salute.
