That's good to hear, obviously. There was always that chance that he'd say "OK, I proved I could come back, now I'm done". I didn't expect that for a second but you can never tell. It is important to remember that he'll be 33 in June, though, which is why keeping Vrabel inside and finally drafting a young OLB early makes sense. We would only have one old starting LB, we would know that Tedy's partner inside could get the job done as Tedy slows down and we'd have a sucessor inside as someone who knows the defense inside and out to be Belichick's coach on the field.
