tsn.ca reports Anthony Calvillo will call it a career next Tuesday.
The All-Time passing leader of pro football would leave the field ending 184 yards short of 80,000 after 20 years.
Calvillo wrote back the pro football and CFL record book in numerous ways, standing among the best QBs this sport has seen. He's already a CFL legend, a first ballot HOF and has set a reference as to passing and reading a defence.
Quite impressive career for a guy that already faced so much adversity.
Hats off, a true class act and exceptional football player will hang his cleats next week.
Good story here
The end of the Anthony Calvillo Era

Man, the guy has been around forever I remember him playing for the Las Vegas Posse in 1994.

You bet, Andy!
20 years of pro football is impressive!
And this guy kept playing at high level year in and year out. Came back better than ever after his wife fought cancer, and came back plaing at high level after he fought cancer himself.
He overcame so much adversity it's kinda sad he'll quit on an concussion.
One of the all-football greats forever!
