papasmurfbell Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/26111283/ravens-rb-collins-arrested-car-accident OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- Baltimore Ravens running back Alex Collins was arrested Friday morning after a car crash about a mile away from the team facility.Ravens spokesman Chad Steele said the team has spoken with police and is aware of the situation.Collins' car crashed into a tree in Owings Mills around 6:48 a.m., according to police. The charges against Collins are expected to be announced Friday afternoon.Collins, 24, ranked 11th in the NFL in rushing in 2017 with 973 yards and drew national attention for his Irish dancing. Last season, he struggled with a foot injury and a lack of explosiveness, losing the starting job to undrafted rookie Gus Edwards and finishing the last five games on injured reserve.There were no guarantees that Collins would return to the Ravens before the arrest. He is a restricted free agent and might not get tendered by Baltimore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tender him and hope someone grabs him for the pick. If they don't just use him in the rotation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrubberRaven Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Between his house and car, he had like 10 oz of weed... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papasmurfbell Posted March 2, 2019 Author Share Posted March 2, 2019 I have known dudes with lots of weed. They liked to party. 10 oz is a weekend to Snoop or Willie Nelson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldno82 Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Yeah, I think cutting him was premature. And the gun wasn't even loaded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vmax Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 He was a very likeable person. He had a brief moment in the sun. I don't understand the rapid decline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papasmurfbell Posted March 3, 2019 Author Share Posted March 3, 2019 The run game came to a halt with Joe. The OL just could not block guys without a lateral running or deep passing threat. I am curious what he would have loooked like when the run game got going with Lamar. He was basically shut down by then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
