The Facts:
Gonzalez, 31, thinking about his football mortality. "Do I want to play five more years?" Gonzalez said. "No. Or four more years? Probably not. Three more years, counting this year, is what I have my eye on at this point."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Gonzalez is closing in on career statistical records for tight ends currently held by former Bronco and Raven Shannon Sharpe. As Star staffer Adam Teicher suggested, three years should be enough to claim all of those records if Gonzalez stays healthy. Gonzalez needs two touchdowns to pass Sharpe, so he should get that one early in the season. Others are more distant. Gonzalez needs 95 receptions and 1,351 yards to pass Sharpe, and time to claim those marks is running out.
