No reason to announce this. I agree with smokescreen theory

100% false.

He was suspended for a game just this past season for:

quote:

Joe Mixon was so frustrated with a parking citation that he tore up the ticket in front of the parking attendant and threw it at the parking attendant.

Mixon reportedly approached the parking attendant right after the citation was written.

"Don't put that shi*t in my face," Mixon told the attendant, the incident report states.

Mixon then ripped the citation in half and threw it at the parking attendant.

According to the incident report, the torn pieces hit the parking attendant in the face.

Mixon then got into his vehicle and "inched at the officer with vehicle in drive to intimidate the officer with vehicle," the report details.

Edit: Fun Bunch beat me to it. No pun intended. LINK to article


Exactly. It's not isolated when he's still making poor mistakes AFTER being under the microscope.

That's stupid. Especially when you're as famous for a previous "bad decision/mistake" as your play on the football field.

It also shows that he'll potentially continue to make poor decisions.

Yep, typical Patriots move. Try to ward off other teams from drafting him by letting all the other teams think the Patriots know something they dont. Because we all know BB is the perceived GOAT in the NFL. Wouldnt be surprised to see them take him.

frick that. Blount was talking shite months before that game via twitter. They get beat and he gets mad because he is being clowned. He then goes and sucker punches the dude. It was ho move anyway you slice it. If you can't take it don't dish it. Simple as that.

You're a lawyer. You know that the reasonableness of response takes into account things like the setting, the size of the other person, gender, ability to defend themselves, ability to do harm to the other person, etc.

I lol'd. But for real, sucker punching a 300 pound defensive lineman is a little different from decking a woman.

They don't have a 1st or 2nd round pick, so it doesn't matter.
