Quote:They're assuming it wasn't granted because there's been nothing reported.  There's also been nothing reported beyond that news brief regarding Blackmon applying for reinstatement.  If it was denied, you'd think there would have been some notification from the league or the team. 

 

All of this is coming from Mark Long.  I'm pretty sure Blackmon must have denied him an interview or something because his reporting has almost come across as personal.

 

I think I'll wait until we get some sort of confirmation from the team on this.  If it is true, so be it.  The team has been working under the premise that he's not available, so the status quo would continue.
