Quote:J-Dub, Blackmon's formality release from the Jaguars would make as much of a blip on the national radar as you announcing your retirement from the Crazy Cat Ladies Society would.
Americus, he's probably still on the team's "payroll" somewhere, even if they've removed him from the roster online and reassigned his number. I really do recall seeing that the team couldn't pursue his signing bonus if they released him. It's possible that they're just going to squat on his rights invisibly until the day he dies of an overdose of the stupid drug, or maybe they've already decided that he doesn't have a penny of it, he'll never have a penny of it again, and they're tired of wasting their time and money pursuing it. Maybe they're just squatting on his rights to make sure the Rams don't sign him in their ongoing quest for the perfect left guard.
The team made it clear several times they are keeping him on the suspension list because there is no financial risk. They pay him nothing.
Perhaps he is to be reinstated soon!!!

The Jags won't be cutting Blackmon any time soon. Hell, RJ Soward is still officially on the Jags roster on one of those specialty list just so we can maintain his rights.

Howe can we still own Soward's rights and let other guys wear #81?
I'm guessing Blackmon has woken up many times and wondered where he was.

Same way we can let someone else wear 14 like we did this past preseason. NFL magic.

If he's not on the active roster or practice squad, he doesn't need a number. Doesn't even need to be shown on the roster publicly at all. I've even seen the Jags reissue numbers belonging to guys on IR in a pinch.
My best guess as to why Blackmon disappeared from the website and his number was just now reissued is that the team has only now given up any hope of him ever returning.

Oddly enough Blackmon is the player listed as #14 and Wynn does not have a number next to his name. They need to fix that.

J-Dub, which roster are you looking at? Because the one on jaguars.com lists Wynn as 14 and doesn't show Blackmon at all. You need to fix your post.

The one on jaguars.com, of course.
Look at this:
Reserve/Suspended by Commissioner
# NAME POSITION HT. WT. AGE EXP. COLLEGE 14
Blackmon, Justin WR 6-1 210 26 2 Oklahoma State
Do you think Blackmon attends home games with Khan
Quote:Why not?
Suspended players are not allowed to enter any NFL facilities.
As you can clearly see in my above post, he is still suspended by the NFL.
Quote:It should be obvious to you by now that something is wrong with whatever device you're using to view the team's website. You're looking at outdated information.
The "device" is a desktop ASUS computer with Windows 10. It does not require any updates.
NFL.com would have reported it if we cut Blackmon already.
Quote:I know this means nothing. But has anyone noticed that Justin Blackmon is not listed on the roster from Jaguars.com? I mean, its not like it means anything, but is this a sign to come? Could he finally be released? I thought I saw a WR with his number out there. Has anyone heard anything? Just asking.
Who? Oh yes, you're quite right; this means nothing.
