“Bye Bye Barry” – The Poster and Trailer are Here!
Barry Sanders is one of the greatest running backs in NFL history. Some folks even place him above Jim Brown and Gayle Sayers. Although a Chicago Bears fan my whole life, I loved watching the Detroit Lions when Barry Sanders played.

Bye Bye Barry is the long-awaited, feature-length documentary that reveals, in intimate detail, the unprecedented journey of Detroit Lions running back, Barry Sanders. One of the giants of American Football, Sanders displayed a style and flair that has never been replicated. But at the peak of his game, Sanders did the unthinkable. At age 31, he walked away from the game, never to return. Twenty-four years after the decision to retire from the NFL, Bye Bye Barry tackles one of the greatest mysteries in sports history: Why did he retire when he did?
