Yahoo Sports is the latest to chime in on the saga of Tony Gonzalez. We all know Gonzalez was set to retire at the end of the year but after tasting his first playoff victory and coming up just ten yards short of the Super Bowl, the Falcons are now "cautiously optimistic" about the return of Gonzo.
Michael Silver cites multiple team sources saying that Gonzalez is "contemplating a return at the right price" and goes on to say that the ability to miss training camp would also be a factor. The magic number is said to be around $7 million (Gonzalez made an average of $6,32 over his last two years).
Hopefully the Falcons can iron out these details sooner rather than later so they don't miss out on a potential replacement in free agency (if for some reason Gonzo doesn't come back).
