It sure was weird seeing Steve Smith not wearing a Carolina Panthers uniform near the end of his NFL career.

Smith finished out his legendary run with the Baltimore Ravens, but he remains one of Carolina’s most popular players of all time and stays close with his former teammates. It’s only right that Smith be reunited with his old team when he officially retires from the game.

However, Smith sounds like he may not be interested.

When he was asked by Rich Eisen on his show today about signing a one-day deal with Carolina to retire as a Panther, Smith would not commit, saying it was not really on his radar and he’d have to think about it:

Smith was one of the most emotional players to ever set foot on an NFL field, so it should come as no great shock if he’s holding a grudge against Dave Gettleman, Ron Rivera and company.

Still, it would be pretty surprising if Smith never makes peace with the team that drafted him. Only time will tell.
