Donald Driver Retires


After 14 years in the NFL, I have decided to retire. It's been an amazing journey, thank you for all of your love and support! #Packer4Life

Driver knew his days in Green Bay were numbered, and he didn't want to play for another team. Guy is a class act to the high degree, and is so loved in Green Bay. It's amazing they already have a statue of him there. You don't see that very often.

Driver is a three-time Pro Bowler and leaves as the Packers's all-time receiver with 743 receptions to go with a franchise-high 10,137 yards and 61 touchdowns. In a time when a lot of players have a "yea, but" somewhere in this history, Driver to my knowledge has had no off the field problems, and has been known for his incredible charity work.

I really can't see how anyone wouldn't like this guy.
