Free-agent running back Kevin Faulk said on Thursday that he has decided not to retire, and hopes that the New England Patriots will show interest in him returning for a 14th NFL season. "I am training to come back to play," Faulk told reporters at a community appearance at Hasbro Children's Hospital. "But it's not up to me. It's up to the team and everything, but I am planning on coming back to play, so we'll see what happens." It was unclear if Faulk had even informed the team of his decision yet. He told reporters that he hoped his announcement Thursday would let the team know he wants to come back "I'm hoping, I'm just praying," Faulk said. "A phone call will come, but it's not up to me to contact them." The 35-year old running back, who has spent his entire career with the Patriots, remains unsigned nearly a month into the free-agent signing period. Source: ESPN.com
Would love to have him back in some capacity on the coaching staff or something. Sad to day it but his playing days are probably over.
