Jaguars Reportedly Setting Friday as Most Likely 'Target Date' to Trade Jalen Ramsey
By Michael Luciano
If a Jalen Ramsey trade is indeed going to happen, don't expect it until after Thursday Night Football against the Tennessee Titans.
The disgruntled Jacksonville Jaguars superstar cornerback has requested a trade, citing frustration with the constant losing of the organization and not seeing eye to eye with head coach Doug Marrone. Ramsey has said he will play for Jacksonville if he is still on the roster, and the Jaguars have every intention of keeping him, at least for Thursday night.
With the #Jaguars playing the #Titans tomorrow night, a trade of Pro Bowl CB Jalen Ramsey prior to the game is unlikely. Friday is the most likely target date, sources say.

Ramsey, who has made two Pro Bowls and one All-Pro team in his four seasons in Duval County, has been drawing interest from just about every contending team.
Jacksonville is holding out for at least two first-round picks considering the caliber of player Ramsey can be at his best.

If you can't build a winning culture, then players will be more inclined to force their way out in search of wins. Because of this, arguably the best cornerback in the game could be playing elsewhere as soon as the end of the week.
