Tori Foles, the wife of Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Nick Foles, revealed on Instagram on Wednesday that she suffered a miscarriage over the weekend.
"As several of you knew, we were about 15 weeks pregnant with our 2nd baby," Tori Foles wrote. "Early Sunday morning after a rough couple days fighting a 'virus' of some sort, I went into sudden labor and knew something was wrong. Not long after we learned we had miscarried our baby boy.
"To fully labor and deliver and even see our baby boy was a pretty devastating process. Come to find that I had contracted an infection of pneumonia in the blood. The emotions go back and forth from immense and overwhelming sadness, confusion and anger to a firm belief that God has this fully in his hands and will use this for good. We cannot always understand or explain, but we know that is true."
Nick Foles was absent from team OTAs on Tuesday for what Jaguars coach Doug Marrone called "a personal situation."
NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported Wednesday that Foles "could be back" with the team by Thursday. Jacksonville's OTAs run through Friday and pick up again on June 3.
The Super Bowl LII MVP joined the Jaguars from the Philadelphia Eagles this offseason on a four-year, $91 million contract.
"We've endured some unique challenges as a couple so far, but never quite knew what something like this felt like and now we do," Tori Foles wrote. "We have so much compassion and sensitivity to those who have gone through a miscarriage at any point and in any circumstance. We know they all happen very differently.
"We are finally home from the hospital and recovering physically from the infection with antibiotics (already much better) as well as emotionally from this traumatic loss. This will take time."
