Alfie Crow of bigcatcountry.com reports that it is looking more and more like former Oklahoma State wide receiver Justin Blackmon won't be returning to the NFL.
"Our process hasn’t changed," Jaguars general manager Dave Caldwell said at the teams pre-draft luncheon on Friday afternoon, according to Crow. "Plan to go without him, but if he emerges, he emerges and he’s going to go in with those top guys and compete with those other guys. Hopefully we’re able to get some news, but if not, we weren’t planning on it, we’re just going to go."
Crow continues, "For all intents and purposes, it appears as if the Jaguars have moved on from Blackmon and aren't expecting him back for the 2015 season. This means the likelihood Blackmon ever returns to the NFL is exceedingly slim and highly unlikely, considering the last time he played a snap in the NFL was in November of 2013."
