I haven't listened yet, but I always thought his retirement must've had more to do with things other than his injuries.

Maybe I'm wrong. But people always talked about his interests outside of football. And he got married before the season and his daughter was due in the middle of the season... Was it inevitable?

Guys like Patrick Willis, Calvin Johnson, Luke Kuechly, even Barry Sanders way back... They all got out early while still among the best at their positions, too.

It's just sick to think about because of what we saw in 2018. It was only going to get better.

I mean we really don’t know if he would’ve went out there half hearted trying only to fulfill an obligation we may have been yelling for him to retire anyway…. Who knows

I still believe he wanted to after the KC playoff game and was convinced to give it 1 more year, he tried to go thru the motions and couldn’t continue the charade
