With all this considered, my suspicion is his retirement is due to one of two things: (1) the Colts let him know they were planning to go in a different direction, or (2) his wife/family convinced him to call it quits.

I'm wondering if his foot injury is worse than they let on and he just doesn't have it in him to rehab and prepare to play another year.
