Jalen Ramsey Didn't Respond to Doug Marrone Because Jaguars Coach Texted the Wrong Number

JACKSONVILLE, Fla.—Jacksonville Jaguars coach Doug Marrone might need to update his contact list.

Marrone said Monday he finally spoke to star cornerback Jalen Ramsey, who is skipping voluntary workouts to stay closer to home, and seemingly cleared the air. Marrone said last week that he reached out to Ramsey and didn’t get a response.

As it turned out, Marrone had the wrong number for the two-time Pro Bowl defender.

It was the latest twist in a weeklong saga that included public shots from Tom Coughlin, Ramsey’s agent and the NFL Players Association.

"Had a great talk," Marrone said.
