Quote:Can we also please dispel this myth that he isn't able to apply yet?

 

How is that a myth?  If league rules indicate he can't apply for reinstatement until 60 days prior to the 1 year anniversary of his suspension, it's hardly a myth to think that he might not be eligible to do so yet.  To think otherwise ignores the traffic stop last July and the subsequent discovery that he was in possession of a banned substance.  Do you honestly think that incident has just gone unpunished?  I find that highly unlikely.

 

Quote:He's technically has been able to apply for a while now. But the NFL has strict rules regarding reinstatement, one being you have to had avoided any other incidents for 12 months. Last summer's pot arrest kinda ruined that for Blackmon.

 

Technically, we don't know when he will be eligible to apply.  We can make some assumptions. Even with the incident last summer, he'd more than likely be eligible to apply some time next month, meaning he'd be available for some off season conditioning, OTAs, and training camp..
