Packers legend Mason Crosby hangs up his kicking cleats

Mason Crosby is no longer calling it kicks. Now he's calling it quits after 17 NFL seasons.

The long-time kicker for the Green Bay Packers is officially retiring. Crosby, 40, announced the news himself on "The Mason Crosby Show", which is on local radio in Milwaukee.

"I'm just so, so thankful, so grateful for the opportunity to come to Green Bay in 2007, drafted in the sixth round out of the University of Colorado, to become a Packer and to be a part of this fraternity and legacy, the history of the Green Bay Packers," Crosby said (h/t ESPN). "It's about the fans. It's about the people. It's about my teammates. For me, I was always a 'we' guy. We're doing this. We're dominating and winning the NFC North nine times while I was a Green Bay Packer for 16 years, making the playoffs, winning the Super Bowl as a team. For me, everything I remember and everything I think about is about the team."

Crosby kicked in Green Bay from 2007-22 and he's currently the Packers' all-time leading scorer by a large margin with 1,918 points. The next closest player is kicker Ryan Longwell, who notched 1,054 points from 1997-2005.
