The Facts:
Rice is considering making one more appeal to head coach Mike Nolan in hopes of returning to the 49ers for a farewell season. If the 49ers don't bite, Rice said Thursday that he might retire. "It's looking real dark. This might be it," Rice said. "I've had a few other options, but right now, I'm having a hard time seeing myself in another uniform."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
A team Rice declined to identify has expressed interest, he said, but he still wants to "say goodbye the right way" by rejoining the 49ers. That said, he's no hurry to accept the 49ers' offer of a one-day contract so that he can retire as a member of the team. Rice approached the team two months ago about coming back and was told he'd be welcome back -- but not a player. ... Nothing has changed since then.
