Julio Jones, a former Alabama and NFL wide receiver, retired from football on Friday after over a decade of dominance. Jones, who also played one year for the Tennessee Titans, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and Philadelphia Eagles, finished his career with seven Pro Bowl nods, 13,703 receiving yards (16th all-time), and 914 receptions for 66 touchdowns. Jones led Alabama in every receiving category as a sophomore, helping the Crimson Tide win its first National Championship.

Jones topped Alabama in every receiving statistic as a sophomore, helping the Crimson Tide capture their first National Championship under Nick Saban in 2009. Jones became an Alabama all-time great the next season, nearly tripling his numbers in every stat area, and the honors helped him be taken sixth overall in the 2011 NFL Draft by the Atlanta Falcons. The Falcons presented Jones a well-deserved tribute video that highlights some of his most spectacular moments.
