A key figure of the Atlanta Falcons' 2016 Super Bowl run is calling it quits.

Gabriel, now 30, broke out in his first season in the pros, hauling in 36 receptions for 621 yards and a score from the Brian Hoyer- and Johnny Manziel-led Browns in 2014.

Just ahead of the 2016 season, however, Gabriel was waived by Cleveland.

Flanked by Julio Jones and Mohamed Sanu, Gabriel flashed with 579 yards on 35 catches, a career-high 16.5 yards per reception, adding a career-best seven total TDs as well.

During Atlanta's Super Bowl run, Gabriel logged nine catches for 171 yards, including three for 76 in the Falcons' devastating loss to the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LI.

Gabriel parlayed his super season in Atlanta into a one-year deal to return.

The receiver racked up career-highs in receptions (67) and yards (688) in his first season in Chicago.

In all, Gabriel leaves the sport with 228 receptions for 2,860 receiving yards and 15 total TDs in 83 games played.
