If Blackmon's been telling the team he's been getting help and sorting his life out in Oklahoma, and he's just randomly in Jacksonville without telling anyone, what does that say about the line of communication between the team and Blackmon?

 

Obviously players are allowed to go and do whatever they want, so long as its legal. But given the fact that he's currently suspended indefinitely, and its his second suspension, one would imagine the guy would make more of an effort to work with the team to get everything sorted out. Showing up in the town where your employer's located, when they expect you to be in a completely different area, and not telling them just smells fishy to me. Obviously I'll support Blackmon because he's a Jag and I'm not going to advocate cutting him or anything.

 

But for someone under a microscope as large as the one Blackmon is, getting into an accident at 3:30 AM when the team expects you to be in a completely different state just doesn't seem like a good look.
