The Facts:
Konrad has decided to retire before he plays a game for the Raiders, his agent said Sunday. "His heart's just not in it anymore," said Drew Rosenhaus, Konrad's agent. "I tried to talk him out of it, but this is what he wants to do. He has lost his love, his passion for the game." Konrad, 28, did not participate in Oakland's three-day mini-camp over the weekend.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The Raiders signed Konrad in March to a one-year, $700,000 contract. Konrad said then that he was looking forward to reuniting with Coach Norv Turner. Both were with the Miami Dolphins in 2002-03, when Turner was offensive coordinator.
