Having definitive mental health problems seems to be entirely speculative. 

He mostly just seemed very disgruntled with being on the Jags. 

I wouldn’t say entirely, Charlie Strong indicated he was having some issues and dealing with stuff.    

I only remember him talking about it because I had no clue Charlie was now with the Jags and was surprised he was there now

Urban Jacksonville is nice, a little rundown but it's nice.

Jacksonville is a poo hole of a town. Can't be great playing there. 

Many moons ago as our family was passing though Jacksonville to Disney land. Pops stopped to get gas and the local sheriff was there. Chatted him up, told my father not to stop if they saw a person in need - "KEEP DRIVING, no matter what". Seems the locals were setting up traps for people passing though, people laying in the street and broke down cars with upset women. Someone/family stops, group jumps out and gets 5 guns in their face then robbed...

The amount of work front offices and coaches do on these guys before the draft would definitely vet out any red flags, so the fact that both Fitt and Rhule were trying to make this happen should be all the confidence one needs.

For the cost? This was a great move. 

but what we got him for and the fact the Jags have been trying to unload him since this summer?  I think does kinda confirm there is at least something there.   

All season the #7 pick of the 2020 draft has been offered up for cheap (who has looked promising when he played)….there has to be red flags that teams are aware of for that to happen IMO.

Short ver- He did not want to play in Jax, at ALL. Near by family is hitting him hard for $$$(rumors). Urdoofus did not help the any issues CJ had, only made them worse.

I'm hearing the same. (Big grain of salt of course.) He's a reserved, quiet type of guy & wanted to get away from the hangers on.

Jacksonville does suck. It's a legit ugly city in my opinion and just all around mediocre. Worst major city in Florida by far.

Floridians don't consider Jacksonville or the Panhandle part of Florida. It is southern Georgia and Alabama.

Sounds like he may be an introvert that has trouble fitting in. One of his teammates was asked how they felt about him leaving and said “we’re not exactly shaken up about it.” And that he was a great player but just a weird/different guy. New environment will almost certainly be good for him initially. Long term who knows though.

Tbf they could only zoom call prospects that year. No face to face meetings. I think cj just wanted out of Jacksonville tho. And I’m a big proponent of players using their leverage to get out of shitty situations. It’s their work environment and careers.

I feel for him.  We had an offensive lineman…a great one, that had a horrible family like that.  Good guy, but his family were always around causing trouble, they were always pressuring him to leave school early….which remarkably, was the right choice, he was ready.  All they wanted was money.

He was drafted #9 in the first round, to…..Dallas.  His family ended up barred from the facilities, they stole from him, and he eventually cut them off.  Believe he gives them an allotted sum, no more.  
 

What a horrible thing to do to your child, if true.

      Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers

      BREAKING: Panthers interested in Justin Simmons

      While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
