Detroit Lions legend Barry Sanders shocked everyone when he surprisingly retired in 1999. Since then, everyone has constantly wondered why and has never been given a concrete reason. You're about to get that reason in November. 

A new Barry Sanders documentary called "Bye Bye Barry" will be showing on Amazon Prime on Tuesday, November 21st. Here's the trailer. It will give you goosebumps.

It's time to finally put all the speculation to bed. Did Sanders leave becasue of the coaching staff? Was it because the team was bad? what was it? I don't know about you, but I will be sitting down in front of my TV watching this one in November.

Until then, we will have full coverage of the Lions unveiling the Barry Sanders statue outside of Ford Field on Saturday.
