Barry Sanders would have come back in 1999 with Miami Dolphins but the Lions wouldn’t trade rights and they wanted Sanders to pay back 5.5 million dollars.
Sanders said he would if the Lions released him. Detroit wouldn’t do it so Sanders didn’t repay the money and couldn’t come out of retirement.

Megatron when he retired had to repay the Lions his signing bonus prorated. He would have agreed to come out of retirement but again the Lions owned his right.

The Lions don’t treat their legends well and the organization is cheap and garbage because of this stuff.

Andrew Luck left the Colts on better terms he didn’t repay any money and is friendly with the organization.

Legends have come out of retirement after a year off Reggie White did it with the Panthers, Gronk did it this year with Bucs.

Andrew Luck is only 31. He isn’t washed up. He left because his body got beat up and the beatings took a toil.
The ex-GM of the Colts didn’t prioritize his OL like his successor.

I don’t think it’s a lock Luck comes out of retirement but it’s not something that would surprise anybody.
