According to sources with direct knowledge of Lynch's thinking, the 28-year-old is weighing the possibility of retiring after this year, saying goodbye to football on his owns terms. He'd leave the football world confused and wanting more, though that's what he often does.

One issue for Lynch is health-related. He's missed just one game in the last four years, but he has battled back pain throughout. Thanks to countless hits over the course of his career, the cartilage in his spinal cord is compressed, which brings him discomfort. That's just one factor as he ponders his future.

Maybe he should retire.

The number of football players whose brains have developed CTE is staggeringly high.
It's not just a matter of dealing with some knee pain in your 60s anymore.

Football players are literally risking their sanity and their lives.
I wouldn't be mad at Marshawn for retiring.

NFL players live fast and die young with battered brains. Nothing new here. ML is doomed either way, but it was a lucrative ride. :-)

looking at the hits he takes it makes perfect sense...hope he re-invents himself similar to what George Foreman did after retiring with a bad pr reputation
