Just read that. That is some real crappy stuff. Talking about going back on your word. I thought he was a good character guy? F him

I don't think a change of heart is necessarily reflective of poor character.

That said, I was never a big fan of his, anyway.

Hopefully we could sign Akiem Hicks or Jarran Reed to replace him.

Guess we may need to go defensive line early in the draft afterall

I'm happy about this. Alualu was not the future. Let Gotsis, Hamilton, Smoot, Ward, hyphenated guy, and/or a motivated Bryan have a chance to prove they are the future. Even with Trevor under center, this is not a Super Bowl year coming up.

Had anyone even heard he had covid and had not signed yet? IMO the dt has some players available now that were not available when we signed him so should be fairly easily replaced, right?

I wound up reading that somewhere else later.  While in isolation he changed his mind.

Sue him and make him pay the expenses to find his replacement. He agreed to a verbal contract with terms.

It doesn't happen often but him backing out after agreeing hurt the Jags and players need to face some penalties if they do that. He obviously doesn't want to leave, so the Jags don't need someone just playing out a contract but they missed out on other players.

Also felt that in terms of production, Alualu was indeed our best signing. FA looking worse and worse by the day. How is it that the Jags didnt make him sign the contract from his home? Is this because he needed to pass a physical? All other players signed already...

He was a solid older bridge player while this team grows. Too bad. I hope they consider Jarran Reed.

I get having a change of heart but maybe after a day or two. It took him two weeks to ask for a mulligan? Not cool.
