Jags'' Ramsey Misses Practice With Illness Amid Trade Demand
(September 23, 2019) - JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey missed practice Monday because of an apparent illness, potentially adding another twist to his trade request.
Coach Doug Marrone said Ramsey notified the team trainer Sunday night, three days after a 20-7 victory over Tennessee in the rain and one week after the disgruntled defender called his agent and said ""my time is up here in Jacksonville.""
Marrone said Ramsey was scheduled to meet with a team doctor Monday. Ramsey was spotted leaving the facility later in the day and getting into a waiting car.
""Depending on the type of sickness, then they"ll stay away because, obviously, you don"t want to get anyone else sick,"" Marrone said. ""It"s happened. I don"t want to exaggerate and say hundreds of times, but it"s happened quite a bit. It"s happened here since I"ve been the head coach a couple times.
""To me, it"s nothing as big, but I understand that"s probably a big story because of the other things that are surrounding it.""

Panthers Rule Out Cam Newton for Week 4
(September 23, 2019) - CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) Kyle Allen will make his second straight start Sunday when the Panthers visit the Houston Texans.
Carolina coach Ron Rivera wasted no time Monday ruling out quarterback Cam Newton for a second straight game due to a lingering mid-foot sprain. Rivera said there is ""no timetable"" for Newton"s return and that the 2015 league MVP will continue to receive treatment.
Newton originally hurt his foot in Carolina"s third preseason game and then aggravated the injury in a Week 2 loss to the Buccaneers. He has not practiced since.
Rivera gave no indication Newton would need surgery, instead saying that what the QB needs the most right now is rest.
Allen threw four touchdown passes in Carolina"s 38-20 win over the Cardinals on Sunday, improving to 2-0 as an NFL starter. He was 19 of 26 passing for 261 yards and finished with a 144.4 QB rating, the second-best mark in franchise history.
Odds Analysis
While the line hasn't moved over the past 24 hours at the vast majority of books (as of 7:35 pm ET Monday night), the number ranged anywhere from +4 at Bovada to +5 at Pinnacle (Panthers the dog).
