Jalen Ramsey Is Making Me Want To Pull My Hair Out

Fuck, dude. I love Jalen. I think that all of these things are really.. actually…circumstantial but damn. The timing could not be worse. Obviously I don’t mean his kid. Congrats on that. Anytime youre in the financial position to take a couple weeks/months off when your kid is born, you should do that. You only get those moments so many times in your life blah blah blah.

The trade demand. The press conference. The sickness. The injuries. Now leaving the team. Everything makes sense and everything is probably legit but as a fan, I just wanna rip my fucking hair out. This season as a Jaguars fan has felt like a few seasons already.

First, there was Nick Foles getting injured on his very first touchdown pass. The wind was out of my sails so damn quick. Next thing you know, I start watching the ole game tape and Gardner Minshew looks like a seasoned veteran in there.

We go and lose a nail biter in Houston where Leonard Fournette looks like a shell of himself. We go for it late in the 4th after Minshew brought us back on huge play after huge play. Go for two. Fail. But, there’s hope. The schedule is favorable and if they beat the Titans on a Thursday Night, the ship could be righted. They do beat the Titans and they beat them in easily.

Things are lookin up. The 6th Round rookie has taken the league by storm and you basically forget Nick Foles is even on the team. Victory friday comes and then the rest of the league plays their games.

Monday. No Jalen. Tuesday. Jalen doesnt practice and now he’s injured. Wednesday. Doug Marrone seemingly makes light of Jalen’s injury in a press conference and then tonight the team issues a statement.

It’s so open-ended. Will he be back Sunday? Next Sunday? Ever? I dont know, man. My heart is broken because hes one of the best Jaguars players ever. Top 3. I hope he comes back and signs a longterm deal but I’d be lying to you if I said thats what I think will happen. Maybe my mind will change again. Ive been waffling back and forth. I just dont know and that makes me sad. Let me love you, Jalen. Let me love you with my whole entire heart.
