    Same reason Calvin Johnson did, to be honest.

    I always read this as something only the player knows. We still saw an all time great close to his peak. But, how did he feel? Possibly he felt worn down at this point. He just saw decline and possibly injury coming.

    Back then a RB wall around the early 30s happened almost as often as now.

    And what light did he see at that point to keep going for? He could have tried to force a trade, but that was never Barry’s style.

    He surely felt satisfied with what he accomplished and didn’t see much worth continuing for.
