    Me too, but I think he's destined to finish his career somewhere else. Too much bad blood.

    Outside of the Lindiots this is the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen on this board.

    andre coming back shows this was all about the $.

    that said, good to have him on board. 8-10 wins is a possibility.

    I honestly wonder what money it would take to get AJ to retire a Texan.

    Yeah, I was listening to the Texans show on 610 with Vandermeer and Deepi Sidhu and they were kind of downplaying the report. While they do think Andre will eventually be back with the team, they didn't necessarily think that this meant he was going to be back when camp opens on Saturday. Like Ian Rappaport mentioned, this isn't the first time Andre has been at NRG since this whole thing began.

    With it being so close to training camp maybe he showed up to work out this contract situation... Maybe Uncle Bob is about to open up that wallet.

    The article says that AJ showed up and was learning the new offense.

    Dre's going to have to gut it out this year. Next year we can more easily let him go and not carry a huge dead weight figure, and he'll be free if he wants to leave.

    But for now, unless he wants to sit out, which at age 34 isn't a great option for a guy who wants to win badly and is trying to make a push for the HOF one day, he's just going to have to play here whether he likes it or not.

    It would just take the Texans not cutting him....but they almost certainly are going to cut him so realistically it would take him agreeing to a new contract for maybe 5 mil a year.
