We've seen some early retirements recently but this is an odd one. Really thinking of retiring or trying to get the Lions to release/move him?

He needs to win a super bowl
The nfl is so boring I swear
You can't really look back and say man he was a great player like in hockey or even basketball to an extent
Maybe I'm too young but I only know like 5 to 10
Much like Barry until the end, Calvin has never had an ill thing to say about the Lions despite going through years of futility. He's broken records, cemented his place as the best WR of his generation and possibly of all time (though that argument would be a lot harder to make if he does call it quits) yet has jack **** to show for it.
The whole "deserving" a championship thing tends to be overblown, but i would say he def qualifies for it.
I don't see the NFL every dying, despite all the concussion and CTE stuff. It's just way too big to suddenly fall. I could see like under 13's playing no tackle or something, but I don't see the NFL's demise.
All good things come to an end. I know players know the risks but I just wonder how many are willing to play going forward. Guys pull out quicker now...guys have publicly said they don't want their sons to play. It will take time but I'd be far from shocked. Its down the road. I could see politics somehow getting involved sometime.
