That's how is comments read to me as well. And personally, I would rather him retire and fire up a coaching career or anything that limits his risk of being paralyzed.

I agree. Sounds like the doctors are saying it's not healing optimally or something. Just seems like this stuff always hits the greatest players. Sterling Sharpe, Terrence Murphy, Gerry Berry. It's messed up, but I guess when it happens to lesser known guys we just don't hear about it as much.

And that's a shame, but it's the right thing. There is life outside of football, after all.

Woody Harrelson was never at Safety and who cares?

The Packers safeties are Morgan Burnett and Charlie Peprah.
The Packers cornerbacks are Charles Woodson, Tramon Williams and Sam Shields.

That's how it is and that is how it should be. (unless Nick Collins comes back, or M.D. Jennings blossoms)

And I wouldn't have put down Terrence Murphy as a great player, but it's a sad situation nontheless.

I was so excited about our safety duo. Two center fielders who can actually tackle a bit, as well. I mean, cover 1 with 1 safety as a robber. With Woodson in the mix, that's an absolutely nightmare scenario for QBs. Especially if we had more of a pass rush. Combined with our offense, the turnoverratio could've been abolutely ridiculous.
