Samuels Will Hold Noon Press Conference on Thursday to Announce Retirement

Oh yes, loved the parting shot at Dallas!

Who's the last good receiver to go out on top that wasn't injured?Jimmy Smith, maybe?

Most players don't go out on top, which is what makes Samuels' decision notable.

Hes been a great one. I can only hope we get a replacement that will fill those big shoes ASAP! Like tonight ;)....OR Draft day!


Good luck Chris a true class act! Enjoy your new life and hopefully a solid and fun time coaching.

I was hoping he'd say that, thought that it would've come out before now though so I wasn't holding my breath.

Speaking of.. whatever happened with Thrash? We heard after the cut/retirement he was out there in warmup gear like an assistant, then never heard about him again?

Unless something changed in the past couple of months he's with the organization. I forget the exact title. Director of Player Development I think. Basically he helps young players transition to life as an NFL player. Mainly all the things they have to deal with off the field

Yep; especially with the egos of the skill players. Doesn't hurt to still get a few mil a year too.

Thanks for that; great role for him.

Well he is super-smart, a core guy and a true Redskin.

Please don't forget to mention he always fought his guts out :)
