Jacksonville Jaguars first-round pick Jalen Ramsey went down with a knee injury during workouts. He suffered a small meniscus tear last week and is expected to miss the summer after undergoing successful surgery.
NFL Media senior analyst Ian Rapoport reported that Ramsey finished his surgery with Dr. James Andrews on Tuesday and that he should be back on the field with the Jaguars for training camp.

This is good news for Jacksonville, who were worried that he could be out for an extended period of time. Now, Jalen Ramsey looks to make a huge impact for the team going into his rookie season.
Having Ramsey on the field will be a big help for the Jaguars, who will have 2015 first-round pick Dante Fowler Jr. back on the field as he returns from a torn ACL last year.
