[Fan Speculation] Is Andrew Lincoln really over with Rick Grimes?

It's been "confirmed" that [The Walking Dead] Season 9 will be the last occurence of Rick Grimes as of Andrew Lincoln himself. He will be leaving the show for the reasons:

 A.) Carl's death - Rick Grimes losing his last fuel to live B.) Andrew Lincoln wants to be with his family in UK. 

BUT IS IT REALLY OVER FOR RICK GRIMES? Here are some points that may prove on how ANDREW LINCOLN is FAR FROM OVER with RICK GRIMES.

1. Morgan

At last, [some] fans' outcry on wanting a direct connection for the two zombie shows happened. Morgan's "literal" crossover with the two shows is quite hilarious and forced, but yeah atleast it happened. As we recap, when the "crossover character" was teased, everyone's speculating that it would be Abraham, a fan favorite until Negan "lucilled" him that lead to his death. With the tease that [Fear the Walking Dead] Season 4 will be filmed in Texas, knowing Abe came there, and with his tweets back then, sounding like he'll "return" was hyped, BUT it never happened [points for the TWD marketing team]. The first point here is Morgan's run to the spin-off show was FORCED and maybe FOR A REASON.

1. Fear the Walking Dead

The spin-off show received negative reviews for the first two seasons as we all know. But got REVAMPED in Season 3, one of the best seasons on the overall "The Walking Dead" franchise. And recently, the entrance of Morgan in the picture plus the pack of new characters introduced, and will be introduced, came with the death of some of the old original characters, Nick and Madison. Of course, rants about those deaths happened, losing the core cast who were the main focus of the spin-off. Then, with the current episodes, Morgan has been murmuring about bringing them to Virginia, FOR A FRESH START after the heavy deaths.

It seems like TWD planned it to put Morgan on Fear TWD to FINALLY merge the two shows. But, how is it gonna save Rick Grimes??

1. Scott Gimple

The most hated man on the TWD franchise, yes, that man. He just got promoted as the overall grandmaster of the entire TWD franchise. And he teased of expanding the franchise in different ways. Maybe a movie? Another video game? Another webisode? Or another spin-off? Anthology? All is possible.

1. The Alien

On that note, we'll go back on how they might save Rick Grimes from totally waving his final goodbyes on TV. Two years ago, a 32-page one-shot comic was released for free. The story revolves on a guy who lives in Spain and were on its first days of the apocalypse. That guy is Jeffrey Grimes, YES, Rick's brother. Although in the comics, he died and only his companion, Claudia survived on a boat. They could use that storyline and make a TWD franchise outside US, a British Walking Dead? But how could he get there?

1. The Helicopter

They've been teasing us with that HELICOPTER for so long. Still, no clear narrative of whom or whose [helicopter] has been watching Rick Grimes. Maybe, this will be TWD's only way out on taking Andrew Lincoln to UK with his family, without losing Rick Grimes on the TV franchise. Win win?

To SUMMARiZE, they brought Morgan to Fear TWD to keep the useful characters there and bring them to the original show [TWD] and END the spin-off [Fear TWD]. With the end of Fear TWD, a new spin-off will commence, with Rick Grimes as the lead that is based in UK. That's all.
