Jaguars Rule Out Jalen Ramsey

No surprise here – the Jaguars have officially ruled out cornerback Jalen Ramsey for Sunday’s game against the Panthers. Officially, the Jaguars say that Ramsey will be unable to play due to a back injury. On that front, head coach Doug Marrone says that Ramsey will see a specialist sometime soon.

Unofficially, it’s believed that Ramsey has been staying away from the Jaguars to reinforce the message that he wants out. The soon-to-be 25-year-old suited up against the Titans, even after reports of his dissatisfaction surfaced, but he away from the team during their Week 4 win over the Broncos.

Jaguars owner Shad Khan reportedly wants to pay the man and keep him in Jacksonville, but, so far, Ramsey has not been swayed. A trade feels inevitable, though the asking price is now set at two first-round picks, and then some.

After the Jaguars face the Panthers, sans Ramsey, they’ll return home to face the Saints on Oct. 13. It’s anyone’s guess as to whether the cornerback will join them for that contest.
