I thought he already was retired. Damn good in his prime.

Always thought he was a tad overrated. Good career though.

Yup. Having an "in his prime" Arian Foster in the back field certainly helped his stats. Pretty clear when he got to Indy (with no discernible running game) what he really had, though to be fair, was likely done by then.

Glad he gets to goes out on his own terms healthy with a bucket full of cash. All you can really hope for.

He obviously had nothing left in tank when he went to Indy.

Playing for the Texans for 12 seasons would end most careers.

He never had a QB.
Never understood a WR with his physical attributes averaged only 17% red zone targets.
