Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Steve Smith apparently will not retire yet, saying he plans to play in 2015, ESPN.com reported Sunday.

After the Ravens’ loss to the New England Patriots in Saturday’s AFC divisional playoff game, Smith, who turns 36 on May 12, posted an Instagram suggesting he will return for a 15th NFL season.

“It was a GREAT season this old man played for you and my teammates,” Smith wrote in his Instagram post. “I’ve enjoyed every moment and couldn’t have asked for a better fan base. Look forward to a better season next year and watch us go WIN IT ALL.”

This season, his first with the Ravens, Smith led the team in receptions, with 79, and receiving yards, with 1,065.

It was the most receiving yards in a season by a player 35 or older since Rod Smith had 1,105 yards in 2005.
