It has already been an emotional day for Detroit Lions fans, but get ready to have the last drop of feeling wrung out of you like a used-up kitchen sponge. The Lions released a tribute video to celebrate Calvin Johnson's career and it is going to wreck you in ways you can't even begin to imagine.

Watching Johnson's career progress as a baby-faced second overall pick, to those terrible, terrible black jerseys, to the dominant force that he was the rest of the way is both gut-wrenching and heart-warming. The triple-teamed catch against the Bengals, the unbelievable games against the Cowboys, the record-breaking season. It's all there and it's all scored by NFL Films-esque music and the epic voice of Dan Miller.
And it's all going to be very, very missed.
