The player was less than a month away from the full 6 month listing of the injury, that, to me, is within the window of opportunity of "realistic". Maybe if the guy was injured in late Sept for 12 months and signed in late October then retired I'd see it as an issue. But in this particular scenario, I don't see the issue!
