It makes a ton of sense for him to throw in the towel early for the Hawks.
1) The Hawks have been shopping him around for years...and he knows it, no love loss there.
2) The lower the price tag for him = The more weapons he has next year.
3) Less sacrifices from him now = Longer NFL life.
4) His contract is set for next year. He can throw INTs all day this year, shine next year and snag an enormous contract after next season.
They didn't bring him back to early, he just wised up during that time off!
