Ray Lewis announced Wednesday that he plans to retire at the end of the season, his 17th with the Baltimore Ravens. Lewis told his teammates that “this will be my last ride,” according to the team’s official Twitter feed.
Lewis will go down as one of the greatest defenders in NFL history and, arguably, the best middle linebacker to ever play the game. Unofficially, he has more than 2,000 career tackles, plus he won two Defensive Player of the Year awards and helped the Ravens to a Super Bowl XXXV title.
