JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Marqise Lee is quickly becoming Jacksonvilles top playmaker, more explosive than Allen Robinson and more consistent than Allen Hurns.A third-year receiver from USC, Lee has 34 catches for 442 yards this season. Hes also been one of the NFLs top kickoff returners, ranking fifth in the league with a 25.1-yard average.He leads the Jaguars (2-6) in yards from scrimmage and all-purpose yards, making a strong case for being on the field more often during the second half of the season.It feels good, honestly, Lee said Wednesday. Its been a while since Ive been healthy. Just to be out there and producing a little bit and (helping) my team as much as I can is legit.His availability might finally have caught up with ability.A guy once dubbed an albino tiger because he was so rarely seen on the practice field, Lee is enjoying the healthiest stretch of his career. Ankles, hamstrings, knees, theyre all good.Ive stopped worrying about it, honestly, he said. Its out of my control. Its out of all our control when we go out there and do something, but at the end of the day, Im just going to work on the things I can work on to maintain. And right now its working, so therefore Im going to continue to do what Im doing.The Jaguars have clearly noticed and have taken steps to get Lee more involved. He got his first carry of the season last week at Kansas City and took over the kickoff return job a few weeks earlier, replacing Denard Robinson and Corey Grant. He also subbed for injured punt returner Rashad Greene in one game.Lees role could be expanded Sunday against Houston (5-3), especially if Hurns is unable to play because of a concussion.Hes been awesome, quarterback Blake Bortles said. Hes been fun to watch. Hes been fun to play with. Youre able to see every time he touches the ball what he can do with it with how explosive he is. We know how fast he is and what he can do.Hes a guy that I think has a rare ability to stay at one speed in and out of cuts. He doesnt slow down to change direction; he stays at full speed. I think thats rare and its hard to do.Lee entered this season with 52 receptions for 613 yards and two touchdowns, hardly what the Jags expected when they selected him with the 39th overall pick in the 2014 draft. Fellow second-rounder Robinson (chosen 61st overall in 2014) and undrafted free agent Hurns were considerably more productive the last two years. No coincidence, theyve also been healthier.But Lee, a three-year starter in college, believes its his time to shine. And staying healthy is the key.He was frustrated a year ago or two years ago with his injuries, coach Gus Bradley said. He could never just get healthy enough to where he could just stack up practices and games to where he felt like he was in a good rhythm. I think now, because of that, hes built great confidence and then hes had success. ... Hes just showing signs that hes really matured and that toughness, that mentality that he had at (USC), that we saw on tape, were seeing that show up now.And hes building a solid relationship with Bortles, maybe even equal to the one the quarterback has with Robinson and Hurns.The last two years, its hard to trust me as far as being in there when you have the chemistry and things like that, Lee said. For me being in the mix now and on a consistent basis is better for the both of us. Blake knowing where Im at and me knowing where hes going to put it out, its just on point.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFLJose Martinez Cardinals Jersey .

"Im looking up at the board and hes got two hits given up and one run, and Im taking him out after the fourth inning," Roenicke said.James Mafia Lauerman eagerly awaited as the voting process closed for Smash Summit 3. I was in the car and couldnt look at the votes in the last 30 minutes, he said.And after the results were finalized? I was so relieved, he said.?Matthew Zaborowski, a longtime friend of Mafia, organized a massive rally to accumulate votes for the New England native. Eighty-four of Mafias supporters accounted for 15,000 votes in the final minutes as Mafia jumped from last to first.The whole New England community coming together reminds me of what family members do for one another in their time of need, Mafia explained. Im very thankful to them.The results were met with some hostility, as fans complained that other players were more deserving than Mafia to attend the Summit. Mafia started the year in 91st on the Melee It On Me annual ranking charts, the lowest of any qualified Summit candidate ever. Despite the criticism aimed his way, Mafia remained grounded and stated, I know that New England has my back no matter what. I just gotta do my thing and be myself.As the Summit players drafted their four-man crews for the Nov. 3-6 event in Los Angeles, Joseph Mango Marquez picked Mafia as the last selection -- and he did not disappoint. In crews, Mafia was sent in as a counter-pick against Weston Westballz Dennis. Many were skeptical of how he would do, but he managed to take Westballzs three remaining stocks while losing only one of his own. He lost to James Duck Ma on the counteer-pick, but Mafia maintained the advantage for his team.ddddddddddddIn doubles, William Leffen Hjelte and Mafia teamed up.Despite never playing together before, they surprised everyone by defeating both PlupBox (Juan Hungrybox Debiedma and Justin Plup McGrath) and PewFat (Zachary SFAT Cordoni and Kevin PewPewU Toy). In each of the sets, Mafia played the supportive role magnificently by protecting Leffen, covering options and extending combos. In winners finals, they kept it close with Adam Armada Lindgren and Jason Mew2King Zimmerman, widely considered the worlds best duo, before losing in four games. In losers, they lost to PewFat in the run-back set to finish in third.The phenomenal run silenced Mafias critics.He did not see the same level of success in singles. He lost quickly to Mango in winners and Westballz in losers to finish in 13th place. Mafia felt disappointed with his singles play, but was happy with what he gained from the overall weekend.This event was an absolute dream come true, he said, and I was able to get a ton of practice and have fun for an entire weekend.With the conclusion of Smash Summit 3, many eyes will be on Mafia to see whether he sees a skill improvement similar to Swedish Delight. He leaves California in high spirits, and now hes back in the New England region on the grind again, hungrier than ever. ' ' '
