I liked the guy even when he played for the Bungles...

he got his ring and a chance to play with winners, I think last season showed him how much he has slowed down... if he retires, and stays retired, I will have even more respect for him.. most pro atheletes dont know when they have had enough...

This news is late, his retirement started at the end of the 1st half in the AFC championship. Just kidding, he did his job, helped us to a championship and I wish him well.

That sucks but good for him! I wish him all the best!:kewl:

According to a few boards,
he wants out of here and retirement is not a definite!
Sounds like he's not happy about being # 2 behind Maroney.

yeah, his agent told john clayton that he just wants out of new england. he is looking to play, but won't be satisfied with 7-10 carries/game.

Even though he played with a chip on his shoulder he knew where the line was drawn.

We're gonna miss you 28 locker.

That's it in a nutshell.Still looking to be a premier starter.

I doubt the Pats will release him untill June 3rd since that is when the cap hit will only be a million something as opposed to 4 million something if they release him by March.
That's what I heard anyway

Corey, thank you for your service and helping win the championships, you want out, ok fine, but no release untile the cap hit goes down.

patriots would be foolish to release him before june for cap reasons. i'm sure he would of been asked to restructure contract to stay- his pride seems to have him walking away from an ideal situation for him- limited abuse to body- all the 5 yd and in td's, chance for a ring. he still has some fuel in the tank imo.

I didn't think Dillon helped NE that much. But, he got his SB Ring so now he wants to leave. Bet he ends up with the Jets!

I agree, wasn't that the whole reason comming to NE to get a ring??
