Randy Moss Officially Retired

After 13 seasons in the NFL, wide receiver Randy Moss officially retired from the game on Monday.


Joel Segal, Moss’ agent, said the 34-year-old wide receiver decided to turn down offers from various teams before making his decision.

"Randy has weighed his options and considered the offers and has decided to retire," Segal said, according to ESPN.

Moss is tied with WR Terrell Owens for the second most career touchdowns in the league with 153. His 14,858 yards place him at fifth in the league and he is tied for eighth in receptions with 954.

With such impressive career statistics, some have speculated about reasons why Moss declared his retirement. According to USA Today, one reason could be the New York Jets signing Plaxico Burress on Sunday, which was rumored to be Moss’ next desired destination.

Segal confirmed that Moss was not able to join a team that he wished to play for.
