LA Rams fans joined NFL fans everywhere in shock as LB Luke Kuechly announced his retirement from the NFL. The news significantly hurts the teams hopes to re-sign ILB Cory Littleton

LA Rams fans joined NFL fans everywhere in shock as Carolina Panther linebacker Luke Kuechly announced his retirement from the game of football.  Kuechly was a throwback football warrior, a muscular mass of motion which zeroed in on the ball carrier and delivered punishing tackles.  Whether you liked him or disliked him, if you were a fan of football, you undoubtedly respected him.

So when Kuechly announced his decision to retire from the game he loved so much, a huge sigh of disbelief and disappointment arose from NFL fans.  Those who cheered him on. And those who cheered against him.  For on this day, the quality of play in the National Football League just declined for all fans.

Yes, the quality of play in the NFL declined. But the market value of Rams pending free agent inside linebacker Cory Littleton just shot through the roof.
