Could be wrong, but I heard a radio guy say he was originally put on a reserve/retired list, and the Jags would own his rights if he were to return.

This is correct, his contract picks up where it left off if he comes back.

I’d wager we still have his rights.

I’m not criticising him at all. He’s win no matter what, which I’m all for. But his Florida and Ohio teams weren’t exactly known for their good work in the community was they ?

So what?

Honestly, we just spent 25 years preaching that these NFL players and coaches MUST be chior boys.. Look where that mind set has gotten this team.. Wanna preach "community"? Lead by example and go pick up trash on the side of the road or go feed the homeless.. That's not this team's responsibility.. Would be nice if they can do both, but not required..

You’re literally missing the point of what I was replying to and what I was saying initially. This is exactly what I was saying when people was saying ‘we won’t have him back’.

Maybe read before you start an argument with yourself.

Again, please point out on the doll where Mr. Meyer touched you..

Wouldn't it be a good thing if he is re-instated?  I'm guessing some team would be willing to trade a some type of pick for him. Does anyone know what his salary would be?

I think we still have the rights to Justin Blackmon as well. Oh yeh, we could also bring back that Offensive Weapon (OW) dude that drove his car into the retention pond at 3am after a night of binging.

Telvin signed a 4 year $45m deal in 2017.  He was scheduled to make $9.75m the season he walked away.  I would assume that would be his contractual amount for salary the first year upon his return.

On a side note, the Jags took a $5.6m dead cap hit this past season for Telvin, and are not impacted financially this next season with Telvin's prior retirement decision.

when did you become a fan???  That started with the Gene Smith regime, which wasn't no 25 years ago.  I remember with the Alualu pick they were saying he was a "family man", etc.  I was like, yeah, but can he play football.  We sure as hell didn't live by that "choir boy" thing in the 90's and 00's.  I mean, we were more successful then as well, so I am sure you knew that.

Yes, it would be a good thing.

We don't hold his rights as a player since he was released, but Shoelace was on the coaching staff last year.

You know, I don’t know all the facts. But I’m going to voice my opinion with a caveat. We should move on from Telvin because of the legal issues, his time off, and he quit on the team. Now maybe there’s a good reason he left the game, who knows—but the time he took off combined with him already being a slight framed guy, it’s best we just say goodbye

Can't play in a 34.

Yeah I was a big fan of Telvin before the legal issues, but I don’t think you bring back a guy with this much legal trouble who has not been training for 2 years.

He got super skinny and lost a lot of weight from a video that was out a ways back. I wonder what kind of shape hes in now. He was a good player

A start on “ten years down”????

Legal issues aside, dude is a major head case. Don't even consider it.

FYI his charges are still pending.

Guys I don’t think we have to worry about this.

He will be remembered with Blackmon, Matt Jones, and RJ Soward.

I honestly believe he could have retired as the Jags all time leader in tackles if he played a full career.

I think he’s the #1 in defensive TDs
