Wide receiver Anquan Boldin is reportedly interested in a return to the NFL.
On Thursday, an ESPN report noted the network's Adam Schefter obtained a letter from the Buffalo Bills to Boldin's agent, Tom Condon, allowing the receiver to explore trade options.
The report comes after Boldin announced his retirement on Aug. 20. The announcement came "less than two weeks after signing a one-year deal with the Bills" because Boldin was "leaving football to focus on social activism," per ESPN.com.
According to the report, the letter pointed to Boldin's desire to play close to his Florida home and family, although the Bills will have final say on any potential trade.
