| 11th November, 2005 - 5:21 pm |  ESPN - Kansas City running back Priest Holmes, out for the rest of the season, is taking a break back home in Texas and is not thinking about retirement, his father said.
There had been speculation earlier this week that Holmes might retire after seeing three medical specialists following a helmet-to-helmet collision against San Diego on Oct. 30. He missed last Sunday's game against Oakland, and the Chiefs placed him on injured reserve Wednesday because of head and neck trauma.
His father, Herman Morris, said Holmes is irritated and disappointed about another early end to his season. But he plans to be back.
