Apparently he just filed the paperwork today. I saw an interview with the Lions' GM last week where they were hoping he would come back.

Good for him. He can walk away from the game in good health and if he did right with his money he should be fine. A def hall of famer......

I think you're right in that previously it was somewhat speculative and now it's official.
