Less than a year a half ago, he spent much of the off-season seriously discussing with his family whether he should even return for 2023. In the end, he obviously decided to return to the team, but I have to believe that that conversation between Mr. and Mrs. Tua has already been picked up where it left off 15 months ago.I don't know a whole lot about their family, but I do know that the family is a very high priority for him - especially his son, who recently turned 2. He said a big part of his reason for not retiring was because he wanted to still be playing NFL football when his son was old enough to not just see Dad play, but to be able to understand and appreciate his abilities.So that makes me wonder.... if his son is that important to him, and he loves him that much, how much does that affect his decision right now on whether this is a risk he wants to continue taking? As a married man, I have to believe that when last year's cpnversation about retirement came to an end, it ended with some sort of mutual agreement that if the concussions continue, so does the discussion.</blockquote>
