89 hinting he may not stay retired

[mc52beast]

Heard a clip on the radio this morning of Smitty holding a interview with either Schefter or Raapaport... guy asked him about being retired and his answer was:

" I don't know if I'm going to stay retired ... I've never been retired before".

I would give my left nu... kidney if 89 put the black n blue back on. Not so sure that Getty is up for this.

Wish in one hand and poo in the other. It'll never happen. But I would be happy if it did as well

Wouldn't take that too seriously. Sounds like just an off the cuff comment.

Regardless, I believe he was still under contract with the Ravens, so they'd retain his rights.

This, unfortunately.

He could come back in 2018 I believe

I can see Smith coming back to play... I read somewhere he is like 45 receptions away from going like 17th in history to top ten.  Plus, to many times players "retire" to then get the back and come back. Of course plenty don't.  I would even think he maybe joins a team towards the end of camp when one needs a WR or even sometime during the season when a contender is looking to maybe add a wr... escp if he could be him.

If Smitty ever came to the Panthers again (I don't think he will) it wouldn't be GMan's call. It would be the Big Cat's.

They would have to make another song if 89 comes back.

It is the only thing that can redeem Gman from abyss (that and winning the Super Bowl). 

[Saca312]

He already laughed off a guy telling him to coach for the Panthers, citing he retired for the same reasons as Proehl.

Don't think he'll come back.

And people ridicule me for hugging Cam's nuts... lawdy.

(P.S. I hug Bo Jackson's nuts too fwiw.)

He is still technically a Raven until March but I assume he'd be an FA if he came back after the start of the 2017 league year since his contract ended this year.

Agreed though that he isn't coming back.

Yeah, keep it up! Keep telling him he can't come back! Keep telling him he'll never be a Panther again. Keep telling him he's old and he can't win a SuperBowl with Cam.

Yes, yes! Doubt and keep doubting. He feeeeels it
