LaDainian Tomilison Calls it Quits

After 11 years in the NFL, Ladainian  Tomlinson announced he will not be returning for a 12th season.

All but 2 years of his sterling career were as a San Diego Charger, where in 2006 he won the MVP honors.

Ray Lewis, the Ravens all star linebacker who rarely gives praise to opponents had this to say about Tomilinson.

"LT changed the way the running back is looked at," Lewis told the Chargers' official site. "You think about him being a complete three-down back and using that as a receiver as well. You hadn't seen that many backs have that type of versatility. He was one of those backs that you had to get in position on all downs on the ball. I think that's the way he really changed the game."
