Maybe I haven't noticed enough but it seems to me he doesn't care future HOF or not. If you can't help him you are gone now.
Right, but every coach is like that. Coaches should think that way. Why would you want somebody if he can't help you? This is pro sports. It's not about sentimentality.
Belicheck wouldn't sign him if he didn't think Urlacher could help. Obviously, Urlacher would have to take a physical before signing with anybody. If he gets nagging injuries during the year that slow him down worse than he is, yes, any team in the NFL would cut him. Or if he just doesn't project out to what you thought, you cut him. So what? That's the NFL for aging vets.
