pwny 4,825 Posted August 13, 2017 He dealt with an ankle/foot injury for the majority of last year too. So this isn’t good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jags 298 Posted August 14, 2017 This small wave that we were trying to build and ride into the season has officially died out. This team needs to make sure he is 100% and not rush anything. He will be not very effective if they throw him out there prematurely, just like he was in his last year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JaguarCrazy2832 1,448 Posted August 14, 2017 So glad Fournette opened his mouth too about how slow the game is...apparently maybe you're just not strong enough to withstand the strength of the game not so much the speed Rook Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All his life (or at least since he started legitimately having a shot at the NFL) he’s been told that the NFL is just so much faster that you can’t prepare for it. He was just trying to say that the transition to get to that game speed hasn’t felt as bad as people told him it would be. Ramsey said the same thing last year.

As a one off, it's not good, but it wouldn't necessarily be a big deal. Guys get dinged up sometimes. But with the history there, it's not really a pattern yet, but if it continues and we get a RB with chronic foot/ankle problems...That would be so very disappointing. And so very Jaguars.
