The hope here is that the legal process will go through swiftly and that there will be no suspensions handed down to Blackmon from the NFL head office.
Blackmon was arrested on Sunday morning out in Stillwater, Okla. According to the Seattle Times, Blackmon was reported to have a BAC of .24, which is three times the legal limit of .08 in Oklahoma.
