A. He's paid his dues, he's as close to being a no-doubter HOFer as you can be. B. He's already got a ring.
C. He's probably the career leader in total money earned as an NFL player.
D. With Fox gone, is there any team in the NFL (Broncos included) where he could win a SB next year to go out on top?
He's probably got 1-2 years left, max. We don't even know what changes the Broncos will make with a new coach on board. He's got nothing left to prove, and his wallet is more than fine. I can definitely see him coming back for 1-2 years, but at the same time I can definitely see him hanging it up for good. He looked fine before the injuries, so he can probably still play at a high level, but does he want to subject his body to another year of punishment? He's not going to be any less brittle next year. Either way he's got a tough decision ahead of him.

2 ways he doesn't come back, he thinks he just can't physically do it, or he doesn't agree with all the changes going down there with the coaching staff. Reports are now saying the entire staff has been let go. Shit is hitting the fan.
