Arik Armstead Injury: Dealing with back injury

Armstead's back injury could be considered serious, as there are questions on whether the veteran will be ready for Week 1, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports.

Armstead was originally considered to be taking a "veteran start" to training camp as he missed practice Friday, but it appears the veteran's back injury continues to linger. Though the 31-year-old is still considered day-to-day, Jaguars' head coach, Liam Coen, is unsure if Armstead will be ready for Week 1. Coen isn't concerned about the veteran defensive tackle's extended absence, saying, "He's a veteran who, ultimately, he'll probably know how to get himself ready to go."
