It's surprising news but coming from a guy like Ricky, when you think about it, it's really not that surprising. He's always been a different cat.

I know it's hard to believe, but there is life outside of the NFL for some people and for some it's just a job. For guys like Sanders, Smith and now Williams, it's easy to walk away and a decision for them that makes complete sense.

Looking at it from our perspective, it's easy to ask how can someone walk away from all that money and fame, well when that's all you've known your whole life, maybe some peace and quiet looks that much more attractive.
