They had already declined his 5th year option and have been trying to void his contract guarantees (it's still unresolved).

He also hasn't been great. Or even particularly good. (Can be debated how much of that is him, and how much of that is the Jags.)
Not particularly good? With next to no other weapons around him, and questionable QB play, he put up 1152 yards rushing at a 4.3 YPC clip, AND had 76 receptions for 522 yards. He was their only offensive weapon, and he still produced like that playing in a division with two playoff defenses.
You might say he isn't a good person, or teammate, and I have no idea about those things, but I would hardly say he wasn't particularly good.
