He made a reckless decision to play with the clot before reporting it. At that point it wasn't clear that he would never be able to play again, when other players have been somewhat successful in coming back. He waited it out, came back, and retired shortly after. It was obvious he was struggling in the end, but if he were less reckless about it, he would have retired, what, a month earlier? Up until that point, there wasn't a reason to think he couldn't at least give it a go.
