Kyle Orton retired officially from the NFL this morning, but did it in a very strange way. After the Bills returned to Buffalo last night from defeating the Patriots in a meaningless game, media and teammates were in the locker room when Orton said he would be right back. Well he never returned and suddenly his locker was empty leaving people wondering what was going on. Then this morning he made the announcement. This is the second time he kinda ran away from a team, as he did it to the Dallas Cowboys earlier this year and wound up getting released, which was exactly what he wanted. Check the pics to see what the media saw in the locker room last night. Orton should be happy as he wants to spend more time with family and retires being a respectable quarterback.
