Using your analogy...

He bought a ticket to a movie that promised to have certain stars - the stars are not as promised.

The analogy is completely flawed to begin with.  The original statement was "Every single Season Ticket Holder has an investment in every player that has a contract with the Jaguars."  That's a ridiculous assertion.  Does that mean that because I buy a ticket with the intention of seeing a specific player, that the team can't trade/bench/cut that player?  Or that each player (or the team) needs to keep all ticket holders updated on their status for every game?  I think we're all going way too far with all of this.  Yes, Telvin has every right to step away to address whatever issues he's dealing with - and yes he should communicate with his employer to let them know - although if he does that prior to mandatory events, he may feel that's sufficient since he hasn't really missed any of those.  Either way, I don't see him returning to the Jaguars for the upcoming season or even after that, I'm sure the team is tired of only hearing from him based on reading his Instagram posts, when he's obviously facing some type of issue.
