Eric Decker officially retired from the NFL after eight seasons last year, but wife Jessie James Decker has yet to throw in the towel on his behalf.

Speaking recently to Extra, the 32-year-old wide receiver, who last played for the Tennessee Titans, opened up about his retirement party, which was thrown by his wife of six years.

“Jessie has been trying to do it forever. She thought I was gonna come back and play,” Decker said of the bash, to which the country singer, 31, noted, “I still think he might.”

Drafted in the third round by the Broncos in 2010, Decker spent four seasons in Denver before joining the Jets in 2014. He was cut after three seasons and signed a one-year deal with the Titans in 2017.

In August 2018, Decker signed a one-year contract with the Patriots and announced his retirement weeks later.

“It has been my childhood dream and my passion to play the game of football. I was very fortunate and blessed to have had the opportunity to have those dreams fulfilled and to have played with such extremely talented and hard-working teammates, coaches and staff,” the receiver posted on social media at the time.

As for his retirement party, Decker said he “got kinda emotional” over the guest list.

“I had people from, like, high school and where I grew up to those who helped me through my process in the NFL,” he said.

The pair posted photos of the party on Instagram in early September.
