JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Jaguars running back Denard Robinson insists he wasnt under the influence of drugs or alcohol when he fell asleep behind the wheel of his car that rolled through a red light and into a retention pond.Robinson was cited for careless driving a week after the July 3 accident. The Jacksonville Sheriffs Offices began an investigation of officers who responded to the scene.I feel blessed, man, Robinson said Thursday after the teams first training camp practice. It could have been a situation where I couldnt be talking to yall right now. The situation could have been way worse than that. I could have hurt somebody or killed somebody. Im truly blessed that nothing happened to nobody.Its one of those things that open your eyes and say youve got to count your blessing, and I understand that.Robinson said he ended up dozing off at the intersection a little after 4 a.m. after a busy day. The former Michigan star added that he probably should have just stayed in.Police say officers found Robinson asleep in his Chevy Impala while it was sinking in the pond. The 25-year-old player and a female passenger, his cousin, were unhurt. But officers had to tell Robinson multiple times the car was in the pond and persuade him to get out of the car, according to the police report.One officer questioned Robinson and determined he was not impaired. But the report said police did not perform any drug and alcohol tests.They questioned me. They did a lot of questions. They did a lot of tests, Robinson said. I made a mistake. It was a mistake that happened, and Ive got to deal with it. Im a man. Im going to have to face it and do what I have to do.General manager Dave Caldwell and coach Gus Bradley have defended Robinson, saying he did nothing wrong other than being out a little later than he should have.I think that is a cautionary tale for a lot of our guys that at 3 or 4 in the morning you leave yourself vulnerable for things to happen, Caldwell said earlier this week.The accident came two weeks after Jaguars linebacker Dan Skuta was arrested in Orlando for allegedly pushing the face of a woman whose head hit a glass window. The battery charge was dismissed July 14 after the state attorneys office determined the case was not suitable for prosecution.It was extremely odd for me because I didnt even know what happened, Skuta said Thursday. I didnt know what I was being accused of, so Im sitting there thinking Im just being attacked by a police officer. I had no idea.Obviously, they thought they had a reason or whatever. It was very odd. I was very confused. I had two people there that saw the whole thing, and I wish that maybe the police officers would have taken the time to talk to them. That would have been very helpful, but that didnt happen.Skuta said legal fees cost him $10,000.Robinson, meanwhile, had little damage to his car.Now, both are trying to repair their reputations and move forward.As far as Dan and Denard go, there are probably not two guys in our locker room that take care of their business as well as those guys do, Caldwell said. I think they are both class acts. They are both high-character guys.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Tony Battie Jersey . - The Oakland Raiders re-signed offensive lineman Khalif Barnes on Friday.

Consecutive doubles by Yasiel Puig and Adrian Gonzalez in the 12th inning gave them a 5-4 victory over the New York Mets on Wednesday night, the Dodgers eighth win in a row that is the teams longest winning streak in more than three years. "Seriously? Explain that game?" Dodgers manager Don Mattingly said. "I dont know. Its kind of fun though." Leave it to Hall of Fame broadcaster Vin Scully to describe the late-night thriller. "Another incredible moment in the magic castle," he said. The Dodgers completed a three-game sweep of the Mets with their sixth walk-off win of the season after trailing 4-0 early. Los Angeles is 40-8 since June 22, the franchises best 48-game run in the modern era and the best in the major leagues since the 1942 Cardinals went 41-7 from Aug. 11-Oct. 1, according to information provided by the Dodgers from Elias Sports Bureau. "They just proved why theyre hot right now," Mets starter Dillon Gee said. "They came back from behind every single night. Theyre grinders." Puig turned a slow bouncer past the Mets diving shortstop into a one-out double before Gonzalezs double -- his third hit of the game and seventh career walk-off RBI. Pinch-hitter Andre Ethier tied the game with a two-run homer off LaTroy Hawkins in the ninth. Ethier returned after sitting out a day earlier with tightness in his left calf. "The guys been out for basically a day and a half, but to go opposite field here? That ball took off," Mattingly said. "Usually nothing goes out at night, especially opposite field. Thats pretty amazing what happened right there." The Dodgers werent done yet. After going hitless in his first five at-bats, Puig legged out a double that glanced off Omar Quintanillas glove and into centre field. "Every time I leave the plate Im always thinking for second," Puig said through a translator. Gonzalez hit the next pitch off Pedro Feliciano (0-1) down the left field line, maintaining the Dodgers 7 1/2-game lead over the Arizona Diamonndbacks in the NL West.dddddddddddd Paco Rodriguez (3-2) pitched 1 1-3 scoreless innings for the victory, the Dodgers 12th in a row in one-run games, extending their franchise record. The Dodgers closed to 4-2 in the sixth on a fielders choice groundout by Mark Ellis and a two-out RBI single by Jerry Hairston Jr. Puigs defence sparkled on a bang-bang play in the second when Justin Turner singled to right field. Puig raced to pick up the ball and fired to third base to nail Marlon Byrd. Hawkins got hit in the groin on a comebacker by Jerry Hairston Jr. in the ninth, but he stayed in the game after a brief pause. "It was a direct hit. No cup," he said. "Ive never worn a cup in my life, but I might have to start. I felt like I got kicked by a mule. It hurts." Byrd hit a three-run homer on a 3-0 pitch from Chris Capuano in the third, extending New Yorks lead to 4-0. Capuano gave up three consecutive one-out hits, including singles by Daniel Murphy and Josh Satin before Byrd connected. Andrew Browns RBI double with two outs in the second scored New Yorks first run. Gee allowed two runs and seven hits in six innings, struck out four and walked one. Capuano gave up four runs and a season-high-tying 10 hits in five innings. The left-hander struck out three and walked two. He allowed double-digit hits in consecutive games for the first time in his career. NOTES: Mets RHP Jeremy Hefner was placed on the DL because of a torn MCL in his right elbow. He is 0-2 with a 7.58 ERA in his last six starts. Manager Terry Collins said its a chronic condition that is getting worse. "But well get him back this year," Collins said. "I do know theres a lot of guys who pitch with this. Hes had this, and hes pitched with it, and he pitched pretty stinking good."... Dodgers SS Hanley Ramirez returned to the starting lineup after being limited to one pinch-hitting appearance since Aug. 4 because of a sore right shoulder. ... Although the Dodgers are starting to tout Puig and RHP Hyun-Jin Ryu as NL rookie of the year candidates, Mattingly said, "Its way too early for us to be talking about it." ...
