I can't see that it would be worth it to him suit for the Jets and tear an Achilles or a meniscus for a few million $.

        We know the guy is hyper competitive and to go to a team with some weapons and a loaded D would give him a shot to win a ring. But we don't know if he is interested, in shape, or even has anything left and how that 41 year old body would handle playing behind a bad offensive line.

        I'd hate to see him come out of retirement to play for another team though.

          Phil and his wife are expecting a new baby this fall. I don't think he's considering it at all. It's just hype generated by reporters seeking clicks.

            I think PR coming out of retirement is currently unlikely, as I think coaching his son is far more important to him than legacy at the moment. I looked at the alternatives for the Jets... no one will trade a starting caliber backup at this point of the season, the free agents are Wentz and Flacco, lol, and then there are the 'retired guys' I saw Chad Henne's name out there. They were all in on Rodgers. It just didn't work for them.

                Cardinals should just trade Kyler to the Jets now, everyone knows they're drafting a QB early next year anyway.

                  That makes the most sense...

                  I'm surprised teams don't try to get Luck out of retirement.

                      Or maybe he might need some peace and quiet by going and playing football!

                      I cannot fathom having that many kids! I have 3 and that was a lot of work. I grew up with 6 sisters and a brother and it was pure chaos all the time.

                        No way Luck un-retires for the Jets or any team...he got tired of all the injuries and rehab:

                          I already hated seeing LT in a Jets jersey, please don't let me have to watch Rivers in one.
