I was sure, he'd play out his years and retire a Steeler.

I will be surprised if he doesn't announce his retirement when nobody is interested in signing him. Maybe he gets signed mid-season when somebody needs a healthy body at WR after multiple injuries, but even then I question what Ward has left in the tank. He's looked slow the last two seasons and turned 36 years old yesterday. Great blocker and good hands, but when he can be single covered by just about every DB in the NFL, most teams would probably rather have a younger project to work with.

All true, but I was surprised to see him cut vs retire.
