Calvin Johnson, one of the only human beings we have universally agreed to call Megatron, has decided to officially hang up his cleats.
Johnson was a unique player at the wide receiver position in the NFL, but his rare combination of size, speed and coordination was on display long before he played for the Detroit Lions.
There were moments at Georgia Tech where Johnson's advantage on the field was simply unfair. He was a first-team All-ACC selection all three years, a two-time All-American, the ACC Rookie of the Year in 2004 and the ACC Player of the Year in 2006.
In honor of Johnson's college career, we wanted to show you a pair of great highlight tapes put together by the ACC Digital Network.
