(05-10-2019, 11:33 AM)The Real Marty Wrote: How about this scenario?   Telvin heard about a potential trade.   He told the Jags he would quit before he allowed himself to br traded.  The Jags called his bluff and went ahead and put him on the market.  So Telvin upped the ante and quit.

A few problems with that.

Who on Earth were they trading him to that was about to take on his 2019 $10 mil salary? 
Why would he rather lose $8mil by not playing opposed to accepting the trade and getting paid by a new team? 

I think he is going through something.  Whether it's mental health and/or substance abuse - or some kind of intense family drama. I think this is something outside of football and money. 

Wish we knew.
