JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Jacksonville Jaguars running back Chris Ivory is keeping whatever condition put him in a local hospital for two days private, but he did say that he is completely healed and hopes to be back on the field soon.

"There’s no more issues," Ivory said Thursday afternoon. "I’m ready to go. Did a little cardio today and now it’s just day-by-day."

Ivory said he didn’t want to go into details about what caused him so much pain that he needed to be taken to Baptist Medical Center early Sunday morning, but he did say that he was glad to return to the facility on Thursday, two days after he was released from the hospital.

"It feels good to be back," he said. "I’m just ready to get back going."

It’s unlikely that Ivory will be able to play on Sunday in San Diego. He was hospitalized early Sunday and released on Tuesday but did not practice Wednesday or Thursday. In fact, Thursday was the first time he was with his teammates since last Saturday at the team hotel.

"Had a chance to visit with him," coach Gus Bradley said. "I think at this stage right now he just wants to move forward. He’s always kind of had that mindset to focus on today and, 'What do I need to do,' and just wants to move on.

"... I think it’ll be really challenging for him [to play against the Chargers]. We’ll see but I think the arrow would be down."

Bradley said earlier in the week that the team has a plan in place if Ivory is unable to play against the Chargers. T.J. Yeldon would be the starter and Denard Robinson would be the top backup, but kick returner Corey Grant also could get some reps on offense.

The possibility of signing another running back -- Joe Banyard and Jonas Gray were both on the roster and released before the season began -- also is in play. That seems less likely after Bradley said he doesn’t expect Ivory to miss an extended period of time. However, he also said it’s too early to know if Ivory will be able to play against Baltimore on Sept. 25.

When asked if he could play on Sunday, Ivory said he wasn’t "going to put a time on it but when the time comes I’ll be ready to go."
