Jaguars to start 3rd-string QB Luton in Hall of Fame game

Third-string quarterback Jake Luton will start Jacksonville’s preseason opener Thursday night in Canton, Ohio

AUGUST 2, 2022 • Associated Press

Makes most of 11 touches Armstead rushed the ball nine times for 52 yards in Sunday's 26-11 win over the Colts. He added two receptions for 10 yards.

Impact Armstead was out-touched by Dare Ogunbowale 14-11, yet he managed to compile seven greater total yards. He did so largely on the strength of a 26-yard rush midway through the third quarter, which helped set up Jacksonville's final score of the game. Armstead has spent the final three weeks of the season with the team, though his role could be in question in 2022 with Travis Etienne (foot) likely to take over as the lead back and James Robinson (Achilles) also likely to have significant involvement if he proves to be healthy.

Active versus Pats Armstead is active for Sunday's game against the Patriots.

Impact Armstead was a healthy scratch Week 16 after inking a deal with the Jags a few days prior, but he's now set to see his first game action since 2019. The 25-year-old should operate as Jacksonville's No. 2 tailback behind starter Dare Ogunbowale, as the only other running back active is Nathan Cottrell, who is up from the practice squad.

DECEMBER 22, 2021 • JAGUARS.COM

Signs with Jaguars Armstead signed a contract with the Jaguars on Wednesday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

Impact Armstead was selected by the Jaguars in the fifth round of the 2019 NFL Draft and rushed 35 times for 108 yards while securing 14 of 24 targets for 144 yards and two touchdowns. However, he missed the entire 2020 campaign due to complications from COVID-19. Carlos Hyde (concussion) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, so Armstead will likely compete to serve as the No. 2 running back behind James Robinson.

Giants claim running back Ryquell Armstead off waivers

The New York Giants have added another running back to the roster

MAY 18, 2021 • Associated Press

Claimed off waivers Armstead (illness) was claimed off waivers by the Giants on Tuesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Impact Armstead missed the entire 2019 season with the Jaguars due to complications from COVID-19, but he arguably landed in a better spot in terms of potential play timing with not much depth behind star running back Saquon Barkley (knee). Armstead was hospitalized on two separate occasions with COVID-19 symptoms, so it's no guarantee he'll be completely healthy for offseason OTAs. That being said, the 2019 fifth-round pick certainly has the talent to compete for a roster spot alongside veteran castoffs such as Corey Clement and Devontae Booker.

Done in Jacksonville The Jaguars waived Armstead (illness) on Monday, John Oehser of the team's official site reports.

Impact Armstead joined Jacksonville as a fifth-round pick in the 2019 NFL Draft, but health issues relating to COVID-19 kept him sidelined for the entire duration of the 2020 season. Symptoms of COVID-19 required Armstead to be hospitalized on at least two occasions. With Travis Etienne and Carlos Hyde having joined James Robinson this offseason, the writing was on the wall that cuts would be made in the backfield.
