I have a question :

Now this could be me overthinking things here but...could it be that he just didn't want to be near his family and wanted to just get away from them(and couldn't because he was drafted to the team that plays in Jacksonville, FLORIDA)?

I mean Urban Meyer being the Coach didn't help matters of course but if you go back to his reaction at the draft, he was the only person that wasn't Enthused.

Isn't he from south Florida, Miami area?  I was thinking about this yesterday, Jacksonville is about 6 hours away from his home area.  That's practically another state.  It's not like they are a short drive from each other. It's a significant drive or plane trip.  NC would be further but same thing basically, significant drive or a plane trip.

True but maybe he wanted to leave the entire state?

If his family are that big of moochers, maybe they moved to Gainesville while he was attending UF.  That's rather close to Jax.

He could also have a lot of friends/associates living in Gainesville causing him problems too.

This could be it, too.

These so-called "Friends".

I don’t get the sense that when they call him “different”….that they just mean quiet and reserved. 
 

 

That tweet going around is terrible.

https://jaguarswire.usatoday.com/2021/09/27/jags-safety-rayshawn-jenkins-on-c-j-henderson-trade-we-have-everybody-that-we-need/

He was asked if it was difficult working with Henderson because of how quiet and reserved he was. Then Jenkins says nah, everyone learns differently, and that he's been in plenty of situations where he's had to work or interact with someone who was different.

The tweet makes it seem like Jenkins called him "different" unprovoked.  He was answering a question about his quietness.

It was still amateur football at the time. 

This is a bizarre line of thinking/excuse-making...

...what's the magic number in terms of hours driving in order to get away from the "moochers"?

As a top 10 pick, I'm sure there was no possible way he was getting money from boosters, amirite?

Not enough to support a retinue of "moochers"...

So how far is far enough to where the "moochers" (i) are at arms-length and (ii) it's too far for the "moochers" to pick up and move with him?

Probably needs to go to Texas or West Coast don't you think? 

Those "moochers" are pesky!

      Panthers agree to 1-year deal with RB Rico Dowdle

      By Basbear · Posted

      Trying to help those 3 folks who hate this move.    In 2025 2.75 million is basically the new "vet" minimum.    They still need #3 RB and returner, draft could/should be the lane for that.    There's no downside to this move, they could cut with little effect and replace with your chosen rookie.

      Tee Higgins Smoke...

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Is it though? Even looking at just this past year, DK played 3 more games and had 81 more yards than Higgins had, but he also did it on less catches, with DK averaging 15 yards per catch and Higgins with 12.5. Yes, Higgins had 10 TDs to DK's 5, but I'd say that was far less about the WRs than the QBs, seeing as Burrow had 43 TDs (and only 9 INTs) to Geno's 21 TDs (and 15 INTs).  Swap the two of them last year and DK puts up better stats with Burrow as his QB than Higgins did, no doubt about it in my mind. DK has also only missed 3 games in his career, Higgins has missed 5 in each of the last 2 seasons. People here complain about our WR speed (and it's many people's biggest issue with T-Mac in the draft), but Higgins ran a 4.59 40 and DK ran a 4.33. DK has only played one more season than Higgins but he has 1,730 yards and 14 TDs more than Higgins, despite playing with the ghost of Russell Wilson and Geno Smith, while Higgins has had Burrow. To me, there is no debate, DK is a significantly better WR than Higgins.  Give him Burrow as his QB during his career and his numbers would dwarf what Higgins has put up.
