The Minnesota Vikings are interested in signing Green Bay Packers WR Donald Driver, who is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent. Although there have been reports that Driver may retire, Driver himself has suggested he may want to keep playing. 'I think I could go to any team and be either their No. 1 or No. 2 guy and be solid for another three years,' Driver said. 'The question is, do I want to see myself in another uniform? Will my family want to see that? If nobody wants to see it, at the end of the day, it will still be a tough decision because I've always said I only want to wear that green and gold and nothing else.'

Green Bay Packers WR Donald Driver managed to catch just eight passes in 2012, and he was inactive for one of the team's two playoff games. As such, he is leaning toward retirement, according to a person informed of Driver's thinking on the matter. However, Driver has yet to make a final decision, but a decision could come as soon as next week.
Fantasy Impact: We don't see Driver coming back. He is about done.

Green Bay Packers WR Donald Driver, who isn't expected to return to the team next year, wants to continue playing football until he's 40 years old. 'I think I'm just going to see what's out there for me and if teams call and want me to come then I've got to make that decision,' Driver said. 'If not, if the Packers want me back, then I'll come back. So at this point it may not work here, but it may work somewhere else.'
Fantasy Impact: He might want to keep playing that long but that doesn't mean he'll be able to find a team to sign him.
