Tyler Shatley has returned to practice at the Jaguars three days after suffering irregular heartbeat.
Shatley was exposed by the hot and humid conditions and went through atrial fibrillation, as reported by his coach Doug Pederson.
“We got him right away, got him treated,” Pederson said. “He’s fine. He’s OK. He’s with the team. Everything’s calmed down. He’ll be out there today. He’ll be in uniform, but until he’s cleared, he’ll just work on the side and all that.”
