This is a GOOD one. I forget about him all the time and all of his untapped potential

Similar vein, Josh Gordon. Led the league in yardage at 1.600+ in only 14 games, but never could stay of the weed after that.

Couldn't stop drinking. I checked up on him regularly for awhile because I was curious if he would get another shot in the league. He couldn't stop drinking long enough though.

Wow, did not know he was an alchoholic.

He originally got suspended for a DUI. Then got a possession charge for weed and I believe another DUI later. He was his biggest roadblock.

He was still on the Jags roster last I heard. No reason to remove him since he was on the banned list. lol
