Jaguars’ Chris Ivory ruled out for Sunday with ‘general medical issue’

Jaguars running back Chris Ivory has been ruled out for Sunday’s game against the Chargers after being hospitalized.

Jaguars running back Chris Ivory has been ruled out for Sunday’s game against the Chargers with a “general medical issue,” coach Gus Bradley said on Thursday.

Ivory was hospitalized for two days with what he termed an “emergency medical condition” in a statement on Thursday. He has yet to return to practice.

“This past weekend was a challenging time for my family and me because of an emergency medical condition that developed while I was with my team at the hotel,” Ivory said. “I am now grateful to be back in the facility and able to refocus on the game that I love.”

Ivory, who signed a five-year, $32 million deal with Jacksonville over the off-season, missed the Jaguars’ Week 1 loss to Green Bay for an unknown reason.
