Jared Allen announces his retirement by LITERALLY riding off into the distance.

Posted by Sunday Night Football on NBC on Thursday, February 18, 2016

Carolina Panther football player Jared Allen has announced his retirement from the National Football League.

However, its the way he announced his retirement that has so many talking today. The former Carolina Panther and Chicago Bear announced, while on horse, that he was done in the NFL.

Allen wanted to ride off into the sunset, but on a snowy day that was not going to happen. Actually, the day resembled much of his last game in the NFL when his team fell flat in Super Bowl 50---Against the Denver Broncos.

Allen just did ride off on a horse, but he leaves behind a very impressive career in the NFL. Congratulations on the retirement.

Now ride that horse as much as you like.
