However, the retired player would continue to exist as if the person had gone inactive, until their required season is complete. The player would then be retired. The person would have no control over the retired player during that season if they wish to recreate.
Sorry, I missed that part until I saw your response to beaver. I think he and I were on the same page, but his post wasn't made until after I started writing my post.
Allowing the person to recreate immediately, but allowing teams to retain the player a full season seems solid. There are some ethical sides to it, but it allows the team that traded to get some usage and it allows the user controlling the player to move on.
