Less than a month after Anquan Boldin signed with the Buffalo Bills, the wide receiver has walked out of the building, literally.

Baltimore Ravens fans, and even fans across the NFL will be disappointed to see him go. Anquan was an incredible football player, with a style so few receivers can replicate. His tough, dominating style was purely Ravens-esque. For being an offensive player, he played with a mean-streak linebackers dream of.
Anquan Boldin stats with the Ravens:
3 years
186 catches
1,945 yards
14 Touchdowns
Within those 186 catches, lies my favorite play from Boldin. Against the New England Patriots in the playoffs, he bullied their defense and broke two tackles during a catch in the endzone. He finishes the catch, stands up, and mocks the defensive back on the ground.
