If he could improve his mobility and fragility I'd agree, but I just can't see it happening. Had he not broken his leg, who knows what could have been, but we can't pretend it's 2018 and he's got the promise to be our QB for 2-3 years. Honestly I don't know what he'd feel he had to prove by coming back next year, apart from the potential of a SB win (which frankly I see us 2-3 years away from right now).

If he retires now he'll go away looking like a legend. Come back next year and get crocked (or look awful) and he'll look like he hung around too long. Even worse if RR feels he has to cut him in/after camp for the benefit of the team.
