I'm not expecting him to be John Lynch, just pulling for him to be successful, that's all.

Heart gets you nowhere, see Curtis Brown.

Looks like Tate might not even accept the invitation to try out for Tampa. Sounds similar to a couple of the tryouts Curtis Brown got last year.

If he doesn't try out...that would certainly hurt his chances at making an NFL roster. I respect him for trying to do what is best for his family and making the responsible decision, if that is what he decides to do.
