Two-time Pro Bowler Vontae Davis shocked the football world in September when he retired at halftime of the Buffalo Bills' Week 2 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. He's now poking fun at the decision in an ad campaign for FanDuel.

"When FanDuel approached me with the concept, I thought it was brilliant and I immediately wanted to be a part of the campaign," Davis said in a press release. "I know how serious fantasy owners are about their teams, it can be tough for them to admit defeat. The opportunity to get a fresh start with FanDuel and still come out on top can help with the coping process. Sometimes you just have to know when to walk away."
