Steve "Air" McNair Retires

[11chaos]

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Steve McNair is retiring from the NFL after a 13-year career in which he was named co-MVP and led the Tennessee Titans to the Super Bowl.

McNair told teammates of his decision during an emotional meeting Thursday morning before the launch of coach John Harbaugh's first minicamp.

McNair began his career in 1995 with the Houston Oilers, who eventually became the Tennessee Titans. He led the team to four playoff appearances, including the Super Bowl after the 1999 season. He was named co-MVP of the league in 2003, sharing the award with Peyton Manning, after throwing for 3,215 yards and 24 touchdowns with only seven interceptions.

McNair's retirement leaves the Ravens with two quarterbacks: Kyle Boller and Troy Smith. It also increases the probability that Baltimore will seek a quarterback in the NFL draft later this month.

He had a nice run with Tenn but I also think he had that fork in his back the past few years but with that said he could still start in Detroit :-(
