INDIANAPOLIS – One of the greatest Indianapolis Colts is calling it a career.
Robert Mathis, the team’s all-time sack king and a pillar for this franchise the past 14 seasons, announced he's retiring at a news conference Friday.
"It's time to step aside," Mathis said. "The game's been good to me. I want to walk away, not limp away. The rest of my body goes to my kids.
"It's a joyous moment. I love everything about it. It'll be weird not putting on the No. 98 jersey. Indy is my home. ... It's part of me, it's in my DNA.
