Los Angeles Chargers linebacker Khalil Mack says he is contemplating retirement. Mack spoke to reporters Sunday as the Chargers cleaned out their lockers one day after a 32-12 loss to the Houston Texans in the AFC wild-card playoff round. His contract with the Chargers is up and he is headed for unrestricted free agency, but first he has to make the decision about whether or not to continue his playing career. "Man, it's a lot of different thoughts in my head right now," the 2016 NFL Defensive Player of the Year said. "I can't really speak on a definitive decision in terms of what I'm going to do because I don't know if I'm going to play football moving forward, so there's some things I gotta talk through with my wife, spend some time with my kids and try not to make a rash decision after a loss.
