Jacksonville Jaguars linebacker Jake Ryan told the Florida Times-Union that he expected to return to the field during minicamp, so when that didn’t happen many fans began to grow concerns. Those concerns increased further this week when he was placed on the Jacksonville Jaguars’ Active/Non-Football Injury list prior to training camp.

However, thanks to coach Doug Marrone we now have an update on Ryan. The veteran linebacker seemingly had a setback this summer (off the field) and will need an undisclosed amount of time to return.

Marrone says LB Jake Ryan had “a setback during the summer,” which is why he’s on the NFI list. #Jaguars — Phillip Heilman (@phillip_heilman) July 25, 2019

Ryan, 27, tore his right ACL at practice last August while with the Green Bay Packers, causing him to miss all of the regular season in 2018. However, due to his connection with Jags defensive advisor and former Packers defensive coordinator, Don Capers, the team decided to bring him in as the linebacking corps needed depth.

While with Green Bay, Ryan showed growth and managed to accumulate 213 tackles and a sack while starting in 27 games and playing in 43. In particular, he made big strides in 2016 before his injury as Pro Football Focus named him the third-most improved second-year player.

It’s also worth noting that Ryan tore the same ACL while in college at The University of Michigan back in 2013. That in mind, his situation is definitely one to watch over the course of camp as the severity of his knee injury is unknown.
