Longtime Giants linebacker Antonio Pierce may be headed towards retirement. Pierce suffered a herniated disc in his neck in Week 9 against San Diego and missed the rest of the season.

First offseason I am having away from football and I am enjoying it."

Patriots wide receiver Randy Moss says he isn't close to retirement and is looking to replace his recently-fired agent. "I have no intention of retiring soon," Moss told the Boston Herald.

Moss also told the Herald that he's looking for new representation. "To all the agents out there, I am a free man! I am looking for a new agent," Moss told the Herald. "I got this football thing under control, but going into my 13th year in the league, I'm still marketable. I'm looking for an agent that's going to get me out there with my marketing ability."

"Any position, you come into the NFL physically gifted," Clayton said. "You've got that. But the mental part is -- by far -- where you make your most improvement in the NFL. ... I definitely see that in him."
