Fan starts petition to keep Falcons Tony Gonzalez for another year

ATLANTA -

Atlanta Falcons tight end Tony Gonzalez still hasn't made up his mind to retire, but one Falcons fan wants to make sure he stays on for another year.

Cary Clayborn has posted a petition on Facebook, and already has over 13,000 likes.

Gonzalez was hoping for a Super Bowl victory before he hung up his helmet for good, but the Atlanta Falcons came up short against the 49ers in the NFC Championship game on Sunday.

The 16-year veteran played for Kansas City from 1997 to 2008, according to ESPN. He started with the Falcons in 2009.

    As we celebrate Memorial Day weekend, we'll pause to remember the men and women who died while serving in the U.S. Armed Forces.  It's also a great time to thank veterans for their service to our country—veterans just like World War II American hero Lew Fern.
