Dion Jordan isn’t talking to the Dolphins anymore

The former No. 3 overall pick appears to be distancing himself from the Miami Dolphins.

Dion Jordan has plenty of free time in 2015 as the result of a season-long suspension for his third violation of the NFL's performance-enhancing substance policy. However, that newfound availability apparently won't be spent on returning text messages. According to the Miami Herald, Jordan has cut off communication with his Miami Dolphins teammates.

"It's a shitty situation," said Miami defensive end Derrick Shelby. "I've texted [Jordan] a few times but got no response."

Jordan joined the Dolphins after being selected with the No. 3 overall pick in the 2013 NFL Draft. Despite the lofty draft status, the former Oregon Duck has yet to make a significant impact on the field. During his first two seasons, Jordan has accumulated just three sacks and 39 tackles. He has also only started one game.

It is unclear what the future holds for Jordan, who turned 25 earlier this offseason. The Dolphins reportedly came close to consummating a deal that would have reunited the pass rusher with his college coach Chip Kelly, but the yearlong suspension ended those talks. The ban also further diminishes Jordan’s potential return in a trade.
