I saw where Marshon Lynch is thinking of retiring. Article said he has lived off his endorsements and banked/invested the $49.7 million he's earned in the NFL. Smart guy.

Absolutely! Were I an immensely talented RB, this would be my plan as well... they already have a shorter career prospect compared to other positions, simply given the abuse and "mileage" they put up. He's at the point now where he could keep playing for minimum or close to minimum contracts (no one is paying top dollar for a RB over 30 really)... or since he was smart with his money he can peace out, go out as an elite RB and do whatever he wants... be that coaching or something entirely not football related. (Note: I left commentating out simply due to his personal relationship with the media... or lack thereof )
