Corey Dillon Seeks Release

Quote:
"I think more of my health, how I envision myself five, 10 years down the road," he told the Globe. "I don't want to be broken down, not able to play with my kids."

He said the prospect of his returning to another team was unlikely, but anything's possible.

"Football is the furthest thing on my mind right now," Dillon said in the Globe story. "I may wake up and feel the itch and decide I still want to shake it, but as of now, I doubt that will happen."

Dillon, who is under contract for the next three seasons with a 2007 salary cap charge of $4.4 million, told the newspaper he has yet to speak with the team.

"I've been blessed and fortunate enough to play 10 years," he said. "I can get up and walk around and be comfortable. That's one of the big determining factors."

Dillon spent the last three seasons with the Patriots after a seven-year stay with the Cincinnati Bengals. He rushed for 812 yards and 13 touchdowns last season and had shared carries with rookie Laurence Maroney.

If he retires, Dillon would leave the game with one Super Bowl title (with the Patriots in 2004), 11,241 rushing yards (14th on the league's all-time list) and 82 touchdowns.

"I gave them what they wanted; I didn't come in and steal money," Dillon told the Globe. "I felt like the money they spent was well earned."
Can't really say I'm surprised. He's getting up there in years, and he's splitting time with Malrony. Based on the kids performance last season, he'll probably be getting a bigger share of the carries next season, too. Time to cap off a pretty successful career while he's still on top.

Thoughts?

Yea I'm not surprised either. Hopefully eh just retires and doesn't try to keep playing for to much longer and leaving on a bad note being horrible.

Re: Corey Dillon Seeks Release

I'm a Pats fan and to say I'm pissed. Dillion is a good running back. We led him to his first playoff game, and led him to the Superbowl. I'm really pissed. Well I hope he gets to a team better than the Patriots. (Yeah, like that will ever happen lol)
