Del Rio Calls Henderson Out
Quote:
Vic Ketchman of Jaguars.com reports Jaguars coach Jack Del Rio praised his team’s energy level following Tuesday’s OTA practice, but that praise did not extend to veteran defensive tackle John Henderson.
“John has a shoulder that, back when I played, nobody would’ve missed a snap. Lombardi might be rolling over. It’s disappointing to see him pull himself out. I’m not going to worry about somebody who’s pulled himself out of a drill,” Del Rio said in a surprisingly terse reaction.
Henderson ended his participation early in Monday’s practice after sustaining some sort of an injury while rolling over onto his shoulder. Reporters first thought Henderson might’ve been experiencing heat-related symptoms but the team issued no announcement on Henderson’s condition and Tuesday was Del Rio’s next-scheduled meeting with reporters.
Clearly, Del Rio is unhappy with Henderson having missed practice again on Tuesday. When asked if Henderson is risking a leadership role on the team, Del Rio said, “Without question. You can’t lead and act that way. Everybody has to determine their own tolerance for pain. Frankly, it’s embarrassing for me to even be talking about it.”
