Veteran wide receiver Corey Davis took to social media on Wednesday to announce his decision to step away form the game of football. The 28-year-old, who projected as a top-four wideout for the New York Jets this season, explained his decision as follows:
For some time now I’ve been contemplating stepping away from the sport of football. This decision has not been easy. Although I am a deep person, I am a man of few words. I’ve been searching my heart for what to do and I feel that stepping away from the game is the best path for me at this time.
