Jaguars forfeit 2 summer workouts after complaint
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — The Jacksonville Jaguars have forfeited their final two organized team activities to resolve a complaint filed against the team regarding the intensity and tempo of drills.
The Jaguars settled the unspecified complaint with the NFL Management Counsel and the NFL Players Association on Thursday. It was unknown who filed the complaint and when.
Coach Jack Del Rio was scheduled to address the situation later Thursday. Jacksonville canceled practices Monday and Tuesday, their final two on-field workouts before training camp.
The NFL’s collective bargaining agreement sets rules for OTAs, which are non-contact drills without pads. Teams practice in shorts, shirts and helmets.
Oakland and Baltimore were penalized for similar infractions last week.
