Wide receiver Chris Conley is retiring from the NFL after 10 seasons to pursue a career as a filmmaker.

Conley’s second act will begin by attending film school at his alma mater Georgia, his agent Jonathan Perzley told NFL Network on Saturday.

Conley appeared in 132 games (65 starts) with five teams, catching 226 passes for 2,998 yards and 15 touchdowns.

Conley, 32, most recently played for the San Francisco 49ers (2023-24) following stints with the Kansas City Chiefs (2015-18), Jacksonville Jaguars (2019-20), Houston Texans (2021-22) and Tennessee Titans (2022).

The Chiefs drafted Conley in the third round in 2015. He set career highs in catches (47) and yards (775) with the Jaguars in 2019. He played in Super Bowl LVIII with the 49ers, losing 25-22 to the Chiefs.
