The Facts:
Following up on the
ongoing story. ... Scobee's frustration was evident just by the sound of his voice. "It’s been a long, frustrating offseason for me," Scobee said in a phone interview today. "To get to sit back and not be at practice with my team and do things on my own, it’s been very weird to tell you the truth, I feel disconnected from my team in a sense, and anxious to see guys on the field and meet some of my new teammates."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
What's kept him away is a contract dispute with the Jaguars. The organization applied a franchise tag worth $2.88 million to Scobee after the two sides were unable to reach a long-term deal this spring. They continued negotiations for a short time after that, but have not spoken since early April. Because Scobee has not signed the franchise tag, he is not under contract and has not attended any of the Jaguars offseason programs. Scobee isn't sure if he will attend training camp. But he doesn't intend to miss games. "I don’t see that as being an option," Scobee said.
