Still don't see what the harm is in going out there and trying his knee in a real game before shutting it down.

Y'know, maybe he went out there and played on it, and could have gotten 4 sacks of Delhomme and defended a few passes and we would have been like "is this guy really injured?" Instead he tried it, and realized that his effectiveness was compromised, so he hung it up. I think he did everything in his power to help his team, including giving up when he could not do so, and should be commended for it.
