JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Jacksonville Jaguars running back Chris Ivory remains in a local hospital for a non-football injury.
Coach Gus Bradley is unsure of the severity of Ivory’s condition and if it means Ivory could be away from the team for a significant amount of time.
"I wish I could say," Bradley said. "I cannot tell you that right now. I know he’s feeling a little bit better. To what degree, I’m not sure right now."
Ivory is still undergoing tests and treatment. He was hospitalized Sunday morning with what the team said was a general medical issue unrelated to the calf injury that limited him in practice last week. The team released a statement on Sunday that said Ivory was “doing well and is expected to be released from the hospital in the next day or two.”
Bradley said Monday that he spoke with Ivory twice on Sunday.
"I talked to him before [the game]," Bradley said. "He was down, obviously, not being able to play. He just wants to get better."
The Jaguars signed Ivory to a five-year, $32 million contract in March. He has rushed for 4,031 yards and 24 touchdowns in six seasons with the New Orleans Saints and New York Jets.
