The best part is…there’s no rush he can comeback week 1 or week 16.

I agree with Chris but I could be wrong. Generally when you walk away from something or someone, the desire left too.

Excellent perspective from

Great point

Cc gives the best appraisal I've heard. Everbody is so busy glazing, they don't take into consideration the mindset and brutality of the game.

Well spoken and very valid points, I had thought about the injury risk bc I've seen players comeback to get injured after returning after a layoff. Everybody expects him to be the same All Pro player as before with Garrett getting some many double teams he should get more 1 on 1 plays which would be a lighter workload than before retiring but time will tell.. I have heard many ex players says that Father Time always wins in the end

The coaching staff will ease him in. There is plenty of depth on that d-line.

I genuinely hope AD actually DOES have that fire if he comes back. So all these are 100% valid points...

Being out of the game for over 2.5 yrs, A.D. is more susceptible to injuries involving the pectoral, triceps, wrists, elbows, tendons, etc.

It will be half a season. Thats being hopeful. On top of that he can never regain that anger he needs to be out headhunting rather than on a boat fishing. He’s going to need that inner alpha wolf.

I think Chris Carter said it % correctly . Very professional said .

He’s fine.

Only the elite can make that kind of comeback.

Father time is UNDEFEATED!!!

Eric Weddle said it took him 2 games to really get back in the swing of it. I think it will be similar with Aaron.
