Dallas Clark, who last played in the NFL in 2013 with the Baltimore Ravens, officially announced that he was retired from playing Professional Football today in a press conference in Indianapolis. It was as a member of the Colts where Clark had his most productive seasons, playing nine of his eleven seasons, and tallying 5,665 Receiving Yards with 53 Touchdowns.
Clark was drafted in the first round in 2003 by Indianapolis where the Tight End proved to be an immediate fit for the Colts offense and would become a part of their Super Bowl XLI win, where he currently holds the record for the most Receiving Yards by a Tight End in an NFL post Season. He would have his best Regular Season in 2009 where he would eclipse the 1,000 Yard mark in Receiving and earn First Team All Pro and Pro Bowl honors.
It is unlikely that Dallas Clark has done enough to be a serious contender for the Pro Football Hall of Fame, but his impact on the Indianapolis Colts was solid and perhaps they will acknowledge that with more than a press conference after his career one day.
