Quote:The official league year starts Thursday, March 4th. I wouldn't be shocked if the Jaguars cut ties with him that day, or at least shop him around. As I understand it, he was suspended for one calendar year so that means, assuming he's had no other issues during this suspension, he's unavailable to any team until week 5 of the new season. And he's one failed test away from the 3rd violation penalty which is determined by which substance abuse policy he falls into.

I think his future with the Jags will pivot heavily on the rehabilitative steps he's taken.  If he's gone through a reputable program and can prove that he's been abstaining from substance use, the Jaguars would be stupid to cut him loose.  If I'm not mistaken, he's also due to have his contract restructured to eliminate financial risk to the team if he does fall off the wagon again.  Jacksonville has everything to gain, and little to lose, if the conditions are right.
