Jacksonville's executive vice president of football operations Tom Coughlin criticized Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey for his absence from voluntary workouts on Thursday, which prompted a response from Ramsey on Friday. The two-time Pro Bowler tweeted that the team knows why he's not there and that his teammates also know he will be ready when attendance becomes mandatory.
Coughlin indirectly called out Ramsey and linebacker Telvin Smith, the only two players not attending the voluntary offseason workouts, while speaking at the team's annual state of the franchise presentation Thursday.
"We're very close to 100% attendance, and, quite frankly, our players should be here building the concept of team, working hard side-by-side, constructing our bond of togetherness, formulating our collective priorities and goals," he said.
