Remember when Vontae Davis retired at halftime? That was weird. Davis left $5 million on the table. The 30-year-old sent shockwaves through the NFL when he abruptly ended his career on September 16th of 2018.
The Buffalo Bills’ were hosting the Los Angeles Chargers. Davis, a two-time Pro Bowl cornerback with the Dolphins and Colts, left his equipment in the locker room after stating that he was “done.”
“Never have seen it ever — Pop Warner, high school, college, pros — never heard of it, never seen it,” Bills linebacker Lorenzo Alexander said after the game. “It’s just completely disrespectful to his teammates”
Davis was a former first-round pick who played 10 years and intercepted 22 passes, but a large portion of young fans will remember him as the guy who quit in the middle of a game.
