Ravens RB Ricky Williams Informs Team Of His Retirement

Running back Ricky Williams has informed the Baltimore Ravens that he is retiring, Jason La Canfora of the NFL Network reports. Mike Florio of ProFootballTalk. com reports that Williams could change his mind later in the off-season. Williams, who turns 35 in May, signed a two-year contract with the Ravens after the lockout that included a $1.5 million base salary in 2012. In 16 games as the No. 2 back behind Ray Rice, Williams ran for 444 yards and two touchdowns with 13 receptions for 83 yards out of the backfield. Selected with the fifth overall pick of the 1999 NFL Draft out of Texas by the New Orleans Saints, Williams' interesting career has five 1,000-yard seasons, one Pro Bowl and All-Pro nod and an early retirement, multiple drug suspensions and a season-ending injury.

now ricky can smoke all the weed he wants without the annoying drug tests .................. party at Ricky's house !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

He should do that as a job now..you know, smoke weed with people. I know I would pay money to smoke weed with Ricky.

But seriously, I was always a big fan of his. Loved the 30 for 30 about him, he's a really interesting person.

 

:icon_cheesygrin:

 

Pretty Ricky was a beast on NFL 2K5

 

hopefully ricky saved some money during his 2nd stint in the nfl .............. although i'm pretty much assuming he will file bankruptcy within a few years

 

good to see I wasnt the only one with taht exact thought process lol

 

dude doesn't exactly have a lot of common sense .............. i don't expect him to be real good with money

 

So in the next 3 years he'll be making another comeback? haha.

 

I would definitely take the Iron Sheik up on that offer.
