Thomas Davis NOT Retiring

That knee is done. Dont mean to be negative here, but tearing it 3 different times would let me know I can't do what I used to anymore. And he's not getting younger

Met with Dr. Andrews today. He doesn't see a reason why I wont be able to play next season. Having surgery in the a.m.

i hope he doesn't. my hopes will be exactly what they were for him this year. that he can come back and get back to his dominant self. i don't expect it, but i still hope it. they need his personality and leadership in that lockerroom and if he isn't hurt he's one of the best in the league.

i want him back and healthy. we should plan on that (him being healthy) not happening, though.

Nobody said he can't play but I'm pretty sure the risk of tearing it again in this dangerous sport is pretty high. A lot of contact and a lot of cutting and running. By time next year come he'll be 29

I dont understand why someone would want to continue going through rehab like he has

Yeah... I'm of the same mind.

And actually, not retiring is putting the team in a worse position. Even if you do return, you might not be 100%, you might tear it again, and now you've taken cap room up that could go to a couple young bloods that want to come out and make a name for themselves.

No disrepect intended here... but Davis needs to take one for the team.

The guy loves football, this is his drive, this is what he loves. This is what he was born to do.

    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.  
    • Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.
