Former Panthers WR/KR Ted Ginn Jr. announces his retirement

Ted Ginn Jr. is hanging up his cleats. The former Carolina Panthers wide receiver and kick returner announced his retirement from football today.

Ginn was a first-round pick by the Dolphins all the way back in the 2007 NFL draft. He spent three years with Miami, followed by three in San Francisco, then he signed with the Panthers for the first time in the 2013 campaign. After an off-year with the Cardinals, he returned to Carolina from 2015-2016. Ginn then put in three years with the Saints and he finished his career with the Bears.

Ginn was part of some very memorable Carolina teams.

All in all, Ginn played in 193 games – 47 of which were in a Panthers uniform. He posted 134 catches, 2,047 yards and 19 touchdowns during that time. Ginn was also a hell of a return specialist. He totaled 2,624 yards and four touchdowns on punt returns and another 6,899 yards and three scores on kickoffs.
