The Facts:
Many in the NFL believe Plummer will reconsider his decision to retire in the next few months and show up at Tampa Bay's training camp, but that might be wishful thinking. The word among his friends is that Plummer intends to stay away. Plummer's six weeks away from the game apparently have only reinforced his decision to move on.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
A big reason many in the league believe Plummer will play again is because retiring means he will owe the Buc $7 million in prorated signing bonus. But according to Post staffer Bill Williamson, those who know Plummer say his decision isn't about the money. A friend of Plummer's who recently spoke with him told Williamson that Plummer is continuing to say the same things he did when he originally quit the game. Plummer is telling friends he remains at peace with the decision and is looking forward to a new phase in his life.
