    You can argue that, but knowing what we know about football players I think it is more likely to assume he will at least return for 2024 and the rest is TBD.

    Stafford has a spinal condition as well and is at quite the risk in case he reinjures it. He also decided not to retire before his option bonus cashed this year.

    Really nobody but Andrew Luck ever walked away from that type of guaranteed money.

      Didn’t Teddy Bruschi have like a stroke and was told to never play football again by doctors but he did? I honestly can’t remember exactly, it’s been a while.

      It’s not even just about money. Football is all these guys know. It’s been their whole life. Not easy to just walk away, even if paid.
