Redskins | London Fletcher unsure about retirement Thu Nov 21, 11:01 PM
Washington Redskins LB London Fletcher said he is not sure if he will consider retirement after the season.
Footballguys view: This is setting up to be a Tony Gonzalez-esque will he or won't he watch, although unlike Gonzalez, Fletcher's lack of consistent production has almost dropped him out of starting consideration in IDP leagues this year. |

Redskins | London Fletcher had concussion Fri Aug 23, 08:34 AM
Washington Redskins LB London Fletcher (concussion) suffered a concussion in the 2012 preseason that the team didn't disclose. He missed a preseason game because of it and acknowledged that his inconsistent performances in the first half last season was due, at least in part, to balance issues connected to the concussion.
Footballguys view: Fletcher's story underscores some of the new coverage of concussions and the NFL coming out right now. If Fletcher was still having balance issues, he should have never been out on the field, but it is likely that he concealed this from the team. |

Washington Redskins defensive coordinator Jim Haslett praised LB London Fletcher Thursday, Aug. 15. "He's amazing to me," Haslett said. "The guy hasn't missed a beat. I don't see any drop-off. He's truly amazing."
Footballguys view: Fletcher keeps putting up LB1 numbers in IDP leagues despite expectations every single year that a dropoff is imminent. Feel lucky if you can draft him outside of the top 20 linebackers this year. |

Redskins | Coach thinks London Fletcher may be leaning one way Fri Mar 1, 02:37 PM
Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan said he believes LB London Fletcher may be leaning toward retirement because he is considering the option. 'One thing you have to do is, you can't ...you got to have a mindset that there's no way you're going to retire. Because if you're thinking about retirement and you're not really sure - at least when I look at my previous years, and you look back at guys - if you're thinking about retiring, you're probably already retired,' Shanahan said.

Redskins | London Fletcher yet to decide on future Wed Feb 20, 08:37 PM
Washington Redskins LB London Fletcher said Wednesday, Feb. 20, that he has not yet decided whether he'll return in 2013 or not. 'It's still a process,' Fletcher said. 'Understand I do this every year, probably the last four or five years. It's just when you get older in your career, you have to evaluate everything. Health is one thing. Can I still do it at the level that I want to do at and play at?'
Footballguys view: Fletcher certainly has stayed at the highest level of play for NFL linebackers for longer than anyone expected, except maybe him. As long as he plays in 2013, he'll be an LB1/LB2 in IDP leagues. |
