Jaguars' Telvin Smith: Not playing in 2019
Telvin Smith announced Thursday via Instagram that he won't be playing football in 2019.Smith has been away from the team all offseason and it appears his absence will continue as he tends to personal issues. The 28-year-old was scheduled to make $9.75 million in 2019 with $5 million already have been guaranteed March 17. It's not clear if he'll have to give any of that back.

Jaguars' Telvin Smith: Status with Jags murky
General manager Dave Caldwell said, "We'll see. I don't want to get into hypotheticals," regarding Telvin Smith's status with the Jacksonville Jaguars for 2019, Phillip Heilman of The Florida Times-Union reports.Smith was not present at Jacksonville's voluntary offseason workouts, which began in mid-April, but the noteworthy aspect of this situation is that the team remains in the dark about his actual status and whereabouts, according to Daniel Popper of The Athletic. The cause of the issue -- assuming there is one -- isn't fully clear, but Caldwell's statement is hardly a ringing endorsement of Smith's future with the team. Per Popper, executive vice president of football operations Tom Coughlin shot down reports that the linebacker was available via trade. Regardless, the situation should receive some additional clarity relatively soon with mandatory minicamp set to begin June 11.

Jaguars' Telvin Smith: Missing at voluntary workouts

The 28-year-old is signed through 2021 and has $30 million remaining on the contract after signing an extension in late 2017, so it's unlikely to be any sort of holdout situation. Smith figures to report by June 11 for the start of mandatory minicamp.
