Aside from that though the man has been second guessing himself since before the press conference for his retirement even occured. The, "Something is bound to happen," hinted at a lot but his face spoke volumes. My theory is that he is waiting to see what GB does with/in the draft, as well as other teams around the league. If the situation is favorable(In other words the chance of winning a superbowl is about guaranteed) he will come back for one more run and ride off into the sunset with a Lombardi trophy in hand. The perfect ending to a story book career. Should he manage to pull this off there won't be a room large enough in Canton to house his bust.
