Conley, an NFL journeyman over the past 10 years, contributed to offenses around the league as an excellent run blocker who could also be effective as a pass-catcher.

“The past 10 years have been a dream. Getting the opportunity to play in the league was an honor and whether it was catching touchdowns or blocking for them i truly gave it my all,” he wrote.

He added:

“I cant mention everyone who was instrumental in my growth as a man and player but if you played a part, I extend a heartfelt thank you. To my teammates, training staff, and coaches thanks for the friendship and trust throughout the years.God makes no mistakes and I’m thankful he proved this to me throughout my career. He is more than enough. See you in the next dream.”
