John Lynch Still Undecided on Future

A fourth consecutive Pro Bowl selection and ninth for his career isn’t enough to sway John Lynch‘s thinking either way. The veteran safety still hasn’t decided whether he will hang ’em up this season or if he’ll return for a fifth year as a Bronco.

“The answer is that I haven’t made that decision yet. I’m not being evasive or anything. It’s just being true with you that I haven’t come to that time,” Lynch said.

Andrew Mason of DenverBroncos.com points out that Lynch indicated that he hasn’t given the subject the amount of time and thought it’s due. “I feel great. I still love the game,” Lynch said, “but I think that will be the case if I’m 50 years old.”

Now’s the time to think about it, John. He had a nice family vacation, reportedly going skiing and enjoying watching the playoffs. But the Broncos are going to be needing a decision soon so they can make the necessary adjustments in free agency and the draft. I’ve already voiced that I hope Lynch can stay another season – hopefully we’ll take a safety in the first three rounds to groom while Lynch finishes a Hall of Fame career.
