Tony Gonzalez is the greatest tight end to ever play football. Holding just about every major record for the position, it’s hard to deny how great Gonzalez was during his 17-year career. We think he might trade some of those records for the chance to hoist the Lombardi Trophy once though!
He got close in 2012, facing off against the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC Championship game. With the Falcons leading at half-time, the Colin Kaepernick-led 49ers stormed back and punched their ticket to the Super Bowl. Gonzalez retired after the next season and joined the CBS broadcast team.
