Receiver Randy Moss has never held a retirement press conference. He didn’t even issue a statement in his own words. Instead, agent Joel Segal let it be known after Moss didn’t realize any big-money offers early in free agency that Moss was calling it quits.

Moss says he is done

Not really looking to start another Randy Moss thread, but hopefully this story and the fact the Pats put up over 600 yards and 38 points on Monday night without him makes this the final Moss Thread.

Apparently, he told Ian Meropol and Lynden Byars that he is done with football.

Hopefully this deters any further "hopeful" threads about Moss's return.

Brett Favre also said "No" for about 6 years. Just sayin...

I am with PWP. Good luck to Randy and his family and I hope they are enjoying his retirement. His TD in the Super Bowl should have been the crowning moment in his career.

It's absurd that some people think no SBs detracts from his resume. He played like a champion in the 2007 season no doubt, and I'm not sure how he could bear any part of the blame for that idiot kicker in 1999.

I hope this guy is able to be happy away from the field although I'm concerned that things will not go well for him without the structure that football provided.

Hopefully this news ends any speculation on the chances of Randy Moss returning to New England, but it appears even he's ruling it out....

Somebody tell Moss he was done midway through the 2009 season

I loved Moss as a player and I have fond memories of him as a Patriot, but he just can't cut it anymore. Good thing the rumours will die with that article.

I will believe when Moss files his retirement papers with the NFL.

Until then, theres always a chance.

According to Ian Rappaport back on August 3rd, Moss already filed his retirement papers.

Thanks for the memories Randy

Such a shame his career had to end this way. Moss was possibly the most "talented" wide receiver ever and although he'll most likely end up in the HOF and go down as one of the best ever I can't help but think his career could have been even better.

Too bad we couldn't get this guy a ring.

Most likely? If he isn't first ballot HoF it will only be because of grudges being held by the voters.

He will get in eventually but considering how guys like Tim Brown and Cris Carter haven't been inducted yet there's no guarantee he'll be a first ballot selection.

Randy Moss is pretty universally considered to be the second best WR in the history of the game behind Jerry Rice. Tim Brown and Chris Carter were good, but not in that conversation.

Randy has more TDs than Carter or Brown and I'm not disagreeing that he was better than them, but at the same time Carter has a lot more receptions and Brown has more yards than Moss. Randy obviously had a more memorable career but they were both a lot better than "good" and it doesn't look either will get in anytime soon.

 

[PatriotFan77]

I'm sure anyone would agree Moss is a sure bet for the Hall. Just a matter of when. If it's not 5 years from now, I will be shocked.

Why is it a shame that his career ends up with him retiring when he no longer can play well enough for a team to want him?
Thats how it normally goes. What end were you expecting?
