Yes. His greatest ability was his speed. People get slower as they get older and he's lost 2 years while in jail.

Besides, he could not have been practicing and working out at a high level. The NFL is very competitive, it requires year-round work, and no one can expect to take 2 years off and still be at the same level. And, sadly for him, his level in the passing game was already mediocre.
