He retired in 2016. His first year of eligibility was 2022. We're in his third year of eligibility. It's going to be soon because his numbers are crazy good even taking into account the much more offense-friendly modern NFL he played in.

Hopefully releasing this online is a part of a PR push for his HOF spot. He deserves it. Panthers not letting him retire a panther and losing him for the 2015 run was pure incompetence.

Fellow Saints fan here. I didn't get to really appreciate him until after he retired. He always killed us when we played them, so I kinda had to hate him. But now, revisiting his career highlights and his story, he's become one of my all-time favorite players. I'll be so happy to see him in the HOF. Tremendous respect!

We lost Anquan Boldin following our Super Bowl run in 2012, but the gods gave us Steve Smith. When he came to the Ravens, it was like well, we got another in a long line of dawgs on this team. His arrival plus the having Gary Kubiak as the offensive coordinator during 2014 was a treat to watch. (Thats why Flacco set career highs that year, plus we set a then-franchise record for points in a season) Steve Smith like Rod Woodson and many others before them may be remembered for playing longer in other teams' uniforms but when they don the purple and black, theres a special feeling.

He was my favorite football player as a little country boy from Roaring River, NC. He and Jake Delhomme were pretty much the guys I counted on to win the game for the Panthers. I watched them play through the fuzzy signal of an ordinary TV with old-fashioned bunny ear antennas. I can vouch for his fiery demeanor because I watched him be ejected from the 2005 NFC Championship against the Seahawks after contact with a referee during an argument over a penalty. All he did was tap him on the shoulder 😒 When they took him out, I knew we were not going to win that game, and we were not going to the Super Bowl that year. He is the main reason I'm a passionate native fan of Carolina Panthers. Watching this makes me shake my head in shame because of how great and feared we used to be compared to what we are today 😔 Where has the fighting spirit and competence gone??? 😭😭😭
